Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, February 27, 2024 - Apparently, this got a great review by Asimov on the NYTimes. My wife bought three bottles. We tried one immediately in ~2018(?) and hated it. All tannins and leather. Kind of chewy.
It is much improved now. Thought I’m not a fan of Syrah, the leather notes have moved to the background now, allowing the fruit to come forward. Others in this group have described tasting details better than I, so will spare you my notes. But would like to add that it is more complex and interesting than many of the wines we have been drinking. Must be decanted or poured slowly.
