Community Tasting Note

• blarmston Likes this wine: 94 points

  November 2, 2023 - Rating is as of today, with a two hour decant.
  
  Time to dust off my old cheesy analogy (or is it metaphor? I always confuse the two)- drinking this now is like driving a Ferrari stuck in first gear.
  
  Everything here is typical Greer Goodness, but she needs time, like 5+ years time. Should be a high 90's bottling with some slumber time.

  Maybe some weekend next year filled with drinking some bomb a$$ wines, tasty food, good peeps, etc.
  
  Between all of our connections in the Valley, we could have quite the PARTAY...
