Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Thursday, November 1, 2018 - Not sure what to make of this yet. My first taste out of the bottle was a bit off, but after a few minutes in the glass it opened up nicely and some of the funk blew off... this clearly needs a bit of air. Made in a more classic style, the nose and finish make me think old Bordeaux, but the California fruit is there.
