Community Tasting Note

Thursday, August 25, 2016 - St Estephe tends to holds up well to hot vintages, I suspect due to the somewhat heavier soil. Plums, blackberry, soil, biscuit, a touch of mineral. Shows a bit of the vintage's heat, but not too alcoholic. I like this for $20. This makes me want to try the Montrose.
