Community Tasting Note

srh Likes this wine:

Sunday, September 22, 2019 - Decanted ≈1 hr prior decant into a cylindrical plastic pitcher which was then closed; NO sediment

Cf. the CellarTracker Article link [lower lft] to get specific info for this vintage, including acclaim.

N: IRON, minerals, earth, notes of spice, poss some leather?

P: Med body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by an astringent pucker which QUITE resolves by the LONG, balanced finish with a very, VERY slightly spicy, tangy/swtness to the relatively few, firming, dusty tannins. Drinking QUITE well right now, & I'd vote to drink our remaining bottle in 6-14 mos. (Went NICELY with IT Sausages and Spinach Stuffed Ravioli in Marinara Sauce.) My EXC-/EXC; // Day 6: Natural oxigenation, but still quite drinkable, 'cuz of the wine's frt? ∑: Will EASILY hold through '20. [As of late Nov '19, wine-searcher still shows 1 source @ $43].

Note: Also tasted on 5/27/17 & 4/14/18
