Community Tasting Note

  • Wine Canuck wrote: 92 points

    April 26, 2024 - This pours medium to light ruby in the glass with light bricking. The nose is aromatic and enjoyable but not terribly deep or complex showing red cherry, cranberry, leather, a kiss of black olive and a faint whisp of dried orange peel. The palate is bright, light and acidic with a cranberry entry turning to medium tannin and high acid. The finish is medium minus in length showing quite tart. All in all this was in good condition but I would have liked to see more complexity here. Apparently made from declassified Chave barrels. The value prop here is a bit weak for the $155 I paid on a NY wine list.
