Community Tasting Note

90 Points
Tuesday, January 2, 2018 - I wouldn’t say it is in a dumb phase, but it is in an austere period. Fruit profile has diminished on the palate (less so on the nose), and there is a solid wall of tannin on the finish that suggests additional years of aging before the wine really reveals its secondary notes. Elements of smoke, leather and Herbs de Provence are starting to emerge. I’d wait a few years for this wine to develop further.
