Acker 200; 2/7/2020-2/8/2020 (The Pool & Cipriani): This was a real contender for WOTN which is saying something since there were a bunch of spectacular wines going around. Just beautiful. Bright and a green herbs and black fruits and just this almost spritz to the wine which came across not as a defect but almost as a refresher. I was impressed.

Still young, needed five more years. A rawer version of this wine than the best vintages provide, but with pure dark fruit and strong soil tones. A much chewier and rustic finish that will likely only partially resolve with more bottle age.

Earthy, grounded. Acidity still holds up on palate.

Acker Merrall Bicentennial Gala (Cipriani Wall Street - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. I guess I can almost understand people enjoying this wine, but there is just too much merde.
