Community Tasting Note

pgrzesik Does not like this wine:

Sunday, December 23, 2018 - Decanted over 30 minutes. First time trying a pinot noir from Joseph Phelps. The nose was rather elegant and pleasant with hints of mocha, Coca Cola, orange peels, raisins. However, this wine went downhill once I tried it! It was very astringent, tart tasting, and harsh on the palate. Felt disjointed. Maybe my bottle was off, but not really like others described this wine. Was definitely not corked. But just couldn't put my finger on what was going on with this wine. This wine was all over the place, confused, not harmonious at all. My wife however thought this was a great wine! Agree to disagree I suppose - but that is the joy of wine, everyone has a different opinion on what they like and don't. We will leave it at that.
