Community Tasting Note

91 Points
Wednesday, October 14, 2015 - Pre-1997 Cabs from Santa Cruz Mtns - Berserkers Offline (The Palace Steakhouse, SF): Seems bustling with density of fruit on the nose. Slight dusty baked earth, laden with intense blackcurrant and blackberry,
A bit tannic and also maybe lean on the palate, but I like it.
Super sweet vanillin and toast, slight toasted coconut.
Score: Around 9
