Community Tasting Note

Friday, October 9, 2015 - Book Club - my turn (Neapolitan Pizza - Laguna Beach, CA): Served blind to a group of friends. Wow, this landed with a thud. Nose has a little zin fruit poking through the sweet and heat. Very juicy mouthfeel with dark plum and red fruit. Seems light on the acid and syrup feel at the end, there's no cleanliness to the wine. Probably over run by the oak/vanilla. As someone noted "this seems manipulated" and my first impression was there are wines that taste like this for much less money. Fully disclosure: I have lots of geyserville in the cellar and typically like them very much. Time to go back and revisit older vintages.
