Community Tasting Note

Friday, February 23, 2024 - disappointing, especially at over $60. maybe my bottle was heat damaged? I only say this after reading praise for it here, which I cannot understand based on my one experience.

day two; it is actually delicious in flavor, but I still do not like it. It is a bit sharp, and thin, and the flavors are not the deep, dark, smooth ones I prefer.

Trying it again, although the drinking experience is not pleasant, the flavor is, one is tempted to add it to a beef stew;,.. but it might be too sweet.

for comparison, I enjoy the Stags' leap cab: the Leap, 2019. of course it is $95. I also like Chateau Gloria 2015 at a similar price, and some 2010 Rioja grand riservas for less.
cheers!
