Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 26, 2018 - This was drinking better a couple of years ago. It seems to have shut down. It is a bit four-square, with bitter berries, mild tannins, good saturation and balance. It tastes like a young wine though it has thrown a bit of sediment. I would leave it alone in the cellar for another 3-5 years. If it can shake off that youthful bitterness a lush wine should emerge. Try again in 2021-2023.
