Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 3, 2018 - Winebar [2 Whts & 8 Reds] from 2/2/18 (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): N: Straw/brambleberry JAM

P: Med body; Rndish entry with ALMOST swtish frt (approaching threshold R.S.?) met by an astringent pucker which surprises by the amount it works itself out as it evolves into a LONG finish with a slight tanginess & faint swtness to the very fine tannins. Needs/DESERVES into EARLY '19, then drinking for 3-4 yrs more. Reasonably done in its flirting with R.S. style. My VG, poss VG+ with a bit of cellaring? 92 pts Vinous (Galloni, 1/18/18). [As of late Mar '20, wine-searcher still shows 1 source @ $60].
