Community Tasting Note

  • Cabfrancophile wrote: 89 points

    May 26, 2023 - Tight on opening, improved with air, though not decanted. Basil oil, roasted peppers, olive, very mild impression of violet, pungent. Fresh, high acidity, more red fruited, angular, lively. Low oak, mild tannins, finish is only OK.

    I like this stylistically, though this bottle didn't really check all the boxes. Maybe there is a surprise given the acidity, but probably for drinking over the next several years.
