Introduction
My wife and I attended ours friends' annual 2023 New Years Eve Vino Fest in Atlanta. This was a BYOB event and guests were encouraged to bring wines with years ending with a 3. An amazing night for sure!

2013 Nine Suns 89 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley, St. Helena
Tasted at the annual 2023 New Years Eve Vino Fest in Atlanta. BYOB and guests were encouraged to bring wines with years ending with a 3. No formal notes, just scores. I brought this bottle to the event. I decanted it for an hour before putting it back in the bottle. Tons of sediment. This had just a wall of alcohol and tannin. I should have decanted this for several more hours or brought a different wine to the event. My score reflects this showing with lack of air but can tell this is a much better wine than my score.
