Community Tasting Note

• RockinCabs wrote: 95 points

  October 15, 2016 - Consistent with my last note. This wine is very graceful and balanced. Plummy Cos fruit with classic earth/mineral tones and just a bit of Cos Spice. Choosing between vintages 85 is currently superior to the 86 with a much more direct approach and clear personality.
