N: FUNK, but with a sense of swtness pushing forward?
P: LM body; NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by an astringent pucker which only somewhat resolves, at least by the start of the LONG, poss very, VERY slightly bitterish finish with a TANGY/swtness to the very, VERY fine tannins. POSS now with food, but deserves/NEEDS through '20, poss '21, then drinking into '25? 13.0% ABV; My EXC/EXC+, trending towards the higher with just a BIT more cellar time.
Note: Tasted blindly, I was, once again, CLUELESS as to its var/age.

Friday Tasting Group: "Killer Bar" (#05 for me) (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): Could WELL have been made by Randy Dunn, as he was @ Caymus from '75-'85
