Community Tasting Note

• Dagalaifus Likes this wine: 88 points

  September 3, 2018 - in the glass, a medium ruby. On the nose and palate, sweet cherry, raspberry and just a hint of oak. It’s tannins are barely discernible and its finish is just too short. All in all, endowed with a flavor profile that's more a lighter-bodied Grenache than a Washington Cab. Suckling's 96-point score for this wine is an affirmation of the subjectivity of wine tasting.
