Community Tasting Note

LiteItOnFire Likes this wine:

Friday, August 16, 2019 - Wife dragged me to Diana Ross at the Wynn- admittedly a great show. Damn at 75 she still has it. Ate at Mizumi- probably the best spicy tuna roll I have ever had. Gorgeous views of the waterfall. This wine is like soft cashmere velvet caressing your insides. Was that a wine-gasim? Might have been. This is not the most complex intellectual wine but it puts out like a sophisticated hooker at a Harvard party- juxtaposition, fluxtaposition who the hell knows but this was amazing juice. I may do the walk of shame in the morning but enjoyed every minute. All cassis and velvet. Not sure about the longevity as it has a subtle acid and tannins component but who cares- drink it and love it. It wants to be held now!

And to be clear this is NOT caymus, Rumbauer Zin or Austin Hope or other wines made for Joe Public (don’t get me wrong love to pop those as my gateway wines for unexpecting friends) which may be sluty as well but those are one dimensional sugar sweet fruit bombs- this is not that it all. Perfect for the night! This would be what Frank the Tank would drink.
