Community Tasting Note

Thursday, November 22, 2018 - Consistently fabulous. Drank on Thanksgiving again a 2013 Quivet Beckstoffer Las Piedras and a slightly overmatched 2014 Carter Fortuna vineyard.

This was easily the wine of the night for everyone at the table. Described as “velvet” and “explosive” by guests (competing adjectives, right?). Beautiful blue and black fruit on the nose announces you’re at a different level here. The fruit and tannin are in harmony already but there’s no denying this is a big, bold, layered wine. Pepper and earth mingle with the fruit. The finish lasts a full minute. Exceptional, again.
