88 Points

Monday, October 12, 2020 - This bottle is showing closer to the 2016 bottle than last year's. Not sure there's a whole lot left in the tank, but this one certainly seems more alive than last year.

Medium (+) ruby to garnet color. Aromas of dark and dark red fruits, barnyard earthy funk, tar, jalapeno/green pepper, crushed rocks and graphite. Medium body, acid, and finish, with flavors of plum, red apple skin, lemon, orange peel, and minerals. Having this lunchtime with leftover steak was probably a good call today; otherwise, burgers would do well. You could pair this with pork or lighter too though. 87-88
