Community Tasting Note

  • VTCellarDweller Likes this wine: 93 points

    May 19, 2014 - The first of four bottles purchased from FP. This was decanted for 90 minutes with no appreciable sediment.
    This is a very vibrant and seductive wine. It is as smooth as a baby’s butt showing exceptional balance, concentration, and length without being overdone. Despite being a merlot dominant blend, this comes off for me as clearly a WA style with no right bank pretense.
    I don’t get the feeling that it will change significantly, either for the better or worse although I do think it can gain in flavor delineation and definition in the coming 2-3 years and last easily through this decade. This is quite well made for near and mid term drinking and should provide a great deal of enjoyment.
