Community Tasting Note

  • The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 91 points

    October 13, 2020 - Retail $75. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Big Ass Bottle. This (and the Chardonnay) was my first introduction to Mi Sueño, and I am impressed (other than the really heavy bottles). Like the Chard, this has spent considerable time in oak (21 months, French) with a considerable percentage new (65%). But, also like the Chard, this does not come off as heavy-handed, in fact, quite the opposite. Good fruit on both the nose and the palate, but this wine is also loaded with plenty of intrigue, particularly on the midpalate with mocha, spice, and where the chalky tannins creep in. This is very nice now but might improve in the short-term. thedrunkencyclist.com
