Community Tasting Note

Monday, December 27, 2021 - 13.7% abv. Recent auction purchase.
A little reductive on the pop 'n pour, and the aromas and flavors were a little unpleasant, so left it stoppered overnight. This cleared things up quite a bit.
A little cloudy, which doesn't bother me at all and actually improves the mouthfeel for me in many cases, as I like the textural mouthfeel that this often gives and was so in this case as well.
This looked and tasted "mature" - not really in a good way. Don't know what this tasted like in its youth, but I suspect it was better, as this was a touch sour and bitter. I'd imagine that this flavor profile character was not that noticeable with more youthful fruit present. Not terrible, but I chalk this up as a Cali Pinot that was just not meant to age. If scoring, 84 - 85.
