Community Tasting Note

• Double-A Likes this wine: 95 points

  October 8, 2014 - Smoky, tar, currant nose with hints of marmite and mineral. Dark and firm with grip and freshness. Long buttered toast finish. Tasted blind
  5/5
  
  The only Californian of the tasting playing to the sensibilities of the French challengers. It was tough to call the region on this one.

As a professional, one of the most significant tastings I have hosted or had a chance to participate in; Even as a professional, I may never taste a collection of wines such as these again...Classically vinified, pre-micro-oxygenation, etc. What a treat.
