Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

92 Points

Saturday, June 20, 2020 - Deep ruby and opaque. A: rocky, iron, roasted meats, a bit sanguine, loads of white/green pepper. F: going with boysenberry, but however you call it, it’s dark berry fruit with a lot of lift and brightness along with all the gutsy feral stuff on the palate too. Lengthy finish, really pure.

This was rocking from PNP onward. Would have decanted but this was a game time decision to open it. Very happy with this already and interested to try more bottles over the years to come. 92-93 for me today.
