I believe they need to rest for about three week before they settle down. (A winemaker told me that once I believe, but I will verify with a expert and get back to you.)I doubt it was a particular wine, but rather the amount of time just after bottling that had passed. If it was two weeks or less, It might have been too agitated and not at all integrated yet in terms of wine and head room exchange and co-existence. I have had some unfiltered wine right from the storage tank and while you could discern the fruity and spicy flavors, it was quite rough yet. I had a bottle a month after it was filtered and bottled and it was spectacular in comparison. But of course, the bottle I had several years later was better yet.I am meeting with a winemaker for a tasting tomorrow, so will ask about the amount of time for a wine to settle after bottling and if there is any difference base on varietal also.Regards, Steve

I've never personally had good experience with young just bottled wines. Do you have any comment as to if this is just that I've tried the wrong ones, or if it's abnormal for this one to be so enjoyed?
