Community Tasting Note

reshep Likes this wine:

Saturday, October 7, 2023 - maybe bottle variation, but i don’t agree with negative reviews. - cellar stored for +\- 5 yrs.

decanted about an hour, very little sediment. dark purple in. color with almost no discoloration at the edges. served with horn bbq - and - was great. i have had several times in the past few years. not the classic big shouldered lytton of the past but a damn nice wine. zin has softened and petite is showing very well through the blend big and jammy with a nice round finish. big yes - with big food - very good. it has a few years left but you will miss the the petite punching through the palate in a few. i would drink in next 12 months and serve with boisterous menu.

in my view underrated and underpriced - very well made wine with a lot of complexity, depth and nuance that only the petite can bring. - takes a degree of patience to get to - but well worth it. disregard the naysayers.
