Community Tasting Note

  • jviz wrote: 96 points

    March 3, 2023 - A generous glass by Tmud and co. Like the 2013 RBS, it avoids overripe, figgy, or roasted notes. Tannins are melting at this point. We talked about what it means for a wine of this style and caliber to be at peak drinking window. Here the acidity remains balancing, just enough. Mountains of fruit are beginning to recede and the structure is softening enough that I’d say it’s entering a drinking window. Will I want it in 10 more years? I suppose so, for curiosity at least. Will it remain in balance? I’m not betting on it and won’t have much from this era around to find out
