Community Tasting Note

Baback Likes this wine:

Saturday, March 30, 2024 - 13.5% Napa cab comprised of 90% cab, 7% merit, 3% petit verdot.

Didn’t need the Durand (although I used it) since this cork came out in 1 piece.

Based on previous reviews I popped and poured and oh boy. Home run. Tasted like a 15yo Bordeaux. Full of life, balanced, tons of primary flavors still, mod tannins. Licorice, strawberry, raspberry, chocolate, pipe tobacco, mushroom.

After 1 hour getting some faint tertiary notes, but still fruit forward. Based on prior reviews I was worried this was past it’s prime, but the bottle I had could have gone another 10 years. Terrific wine.
