Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Saturday, August 15, 2020 - Wow, what a bloody good step up from the '95 this is. Rich, blasting complexity on the nose showing notes of black forest fruit, chocolate, leather. Silky smooth on the palate with fully developed tannins. Acidity is still firm and keeps the fruit concentration flying high and alive. Long, beautiful finish. Just so good.
