94 Points

Thursday, January 25, 2024 - 5 Guys and a Gal! (Casa Joe & Khem): Is it young? Yes! Is it good? No.....it's great! This wine should sit for years, but that will be difficult as it is pretty darn tasty right now! Nose is perfumed with lots of cherry and cherry blossom, plus some cedar and spice. Palate is predominantly cherry and tree bark, with a streak of minerality featuring lots of iron and graphite, with some mushroom, forest floor, spice and some signature black pepper. A nice balance between fruit and tertiary flavors, leaning toward the fruit side of the spectrum. As much as this is in my wheelhouse now, I can't help but feel how much better it will be with a few more years of bottle age and additional complexities emerge! 94 to 94+ now, could gain a point or two with additional bottle age!
