Community Tasting Notes 9

  • Tritioch Likes this wine:

    September 2, 2020 - Dark, with some seriously funky Asian spices, sandalwood, eucalyptus, blueberries, black cherries, and a distinct salinity.
    Powerful. Syrup of blueberries and a bracing backbone of salinity. Loses the spice notes of the nose behind the dark fruit. Jaw popping intensity of flavor.
    Powerful dark fruit notes echo through the finish with a smouldered earth and eucalyptus note.

    Interesting and still incredibly primary. I can’t wait to see how this evolved into day two, and what if anything emerges from the depths.

    July 22, 2020 - Heaviest sediment I've seen in a wine bottle. Did not seem very developed - even when strained (7 complete cleanouts of strainer). Somewhat thick, syrupy and didn't have a typical taste profile of PS. Not bad, just not all that good either

    November 27, 2019 - Fabulous. Great match with Tri-Tip.

  • Tyler C Likes this wine: 92 points

    July 1, 2017 - Blackberry jam, dark fruits and a very vibrant finish. Decanted for 2 hours and it continued to evolve over the next couple of hours. Try the next one post 2019.

    May 25, 2017 - Tight, focused, young. Didn't decant and it didn't really open up too much after the first hour. Will try this again in a couple more years.
