Community Tasting Note

95 Points
Sunday, March 13, 2022 - Opened and recorked 24h in advance. Nose of purple flowers, boysenberry, hints of oak, moderate aromatic intensity. Medium plus bodied, purple fruit, floral. Very tannic with moderate coarseness, medium acidity. Saving the second half for day 3.
This is a fantastic bottle. The tannins are very strong, so if you’re averse I would not open this anytime soon. It seems slightly closed, but still very good. I’m very excited to see where this goes in another 10 years.
