Community Tasting Note

  June 24, 2018 - Drank as part of a four wine blind. Included LB, RB bordeauxs and CA and Argentina Cabs. Did not do well on the blind. The Sullivan CA cab was more fruit forward and the Argentinian cab lacked the green un-ripeness I often find in South American cabs so it through me all off.
  
  Like all the others, I scored lower here than I did prior. This one still had the best score of the four despite my standing of resistance to the green under-ripeness I often find in South America. This was again clear of that.
  
  Nice deep and opaque fading magenta to the rim. Moderate limpidity with a fruity and woody nose. Ceder oak. Blackberry, blueberry and strawberry drive the palate. I didn't note alot of other flavors going on here and entering a more than a week after my notes so clearly missing a few things.
  
  Dry, warm with crisp acidity and moderate tannins. Nicely balanced with a good firm finish.
  
  8/7/7/7/7 - 36/86
