Community Tasting Notes 34

  • psoals Does not like this wine:

    April 25, 2020 - Purchased upon release, decanted for sediment. Far less structure than I would have hoped for Howell Mountain fruit. Initially not bad, pleasant red cherries and leather. With time in glass, lots of cedar and fruit faded quickly. Dissapointed. Hopefully anyone still holding this has a better experience.

    September 25, 2018 - Drinking perfectly now. Integrated tannins, blue fruit all over the palate. Finish seems a bit short but still delicious. Drink now.
