Community Tasting Note

  • srh Likes this wine:

    January 26, 2019 - Sat, 01/26/19, $2 Tasting (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): 73% S.B. & 27% Semillon from the Sagemoor (51%), Boushey (29%), & Klipsun (20%) Vyds that's apparently barrel fermented with lees contact

    N: Slightly closed; Earth, poss toast, with a frt character I can't place

    P: Med, poss MF, body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt offset by an acidity which defines the wine into & through the LONG, tangy/swt finish with a very, VERY slight bitterness which just MAY be a +. For now & likely EARLY '20. My VG+, poss VG+/EXC- [or arguably even higher based upon the (closeout?) QPR of this vendor's $13.95, which is an UNBELIEVABLE $11 < than wine-searcher's next lowest posting!] 93 pts Vinous (Tanzer), 91 WA (Dunnuck), & 17/20 Jancis Robinson.
