bsumoba Does not like this wine:
July 3, 2023 - Blind Tasting at Mi Casa: I'm not normally a fan of writing reviews like this, but it must be said. I will preface this TN with the fact that this is a newly released wine and I have no experience with this producer prior, so it could be that these nice needs some cellar time. I have one bottle and it will not see the light of day again for maybe 10+ years. Lots of bell pepper on the nose and palate. Maybe cherries which have been left with freshly cut bell peppers? This was #5 of 5 in the blind tasting. Not my style, but we shall see in 10 years.

7/14/23, 6:25 PM - FWIW, These are built to cellar. I have never enjoyed one of these with out at least 6-7 years on it and a 2 hour decant and they have been amazing. 10 years is probably a better cellar target. They are full of whole cluster tannins without a lot of time and air. IMO, give that last bottle a lot of cellar time and then revisit.
