Community Tasting Note

95 Points
Monday, May 30, 2016 - Amazingly beautiful to look at and sniff in the glass. Very youthful appearance. Deep, dark crimson color, intensely focused dry fruit that is hidden behind a wall of tannin...and this makes me smile. Razor like acid. This is so structured, so young, so firm, so elegant and so precise. Long finish, with lots of grip that won't let go...and this obviously has a long life ahead of it. Not even a hint that this wine is in its maturity window. Score will go higher in a few years.
