Community Tasting Note

Friday, December 23, 2022 - Decant 1 hour. ruby garnet bricking. strangely, zero sediment.
Medium weight, nice left bank nose but lacking mid-palate strength and weight. tannins softening up nicely and drinking well. This paired nicely with the rib roast, but would have a tough time distinguishing itself without food.
This is a food friendly wine.
87-89
