ptm Likes this wine: 93 points
August 22, 2017 - Very well-rounded Rhone blend though it lacks some depth - surprisingly drinkable now and doubtful that it will last more than 5 years - would love to hear contrary opinions

I think a year of time might better help to integrate the overall flavor profile, but I see this becoming muddled and fairly flat after 5-7 years. Who knows, as predicting a wine's lifespan can be a moving target. That's just my 2 cents. Thanks for the note.
