Community Tasting Note

Skrutt (Formerly RotHead) Likes this wine: 91 points
October 13, 2017 - This feels more complete to me than the 2015, the chalky acidity not being blinding or monolithic but well complemented by minerals and succulent fruit. (Perhaps grapefruit as the previous reviewer claimed but also a hint of sweeter fruits like honeydew melon or mango.
