Community Tasting Note

• Woodbridge Brad Likes this wine:

  June 17, 2019 - No Score. This bottle was from another former RM winemaker's cellar and had a mid shoulder ullage from a less than pristine cork. The occasion was a third winemakers birthday, (her husband). The wine at 12% alcohol had plenty of acidity and was still drinkable although far past its prime. Would it have done with a better cork, definitely. The debate about lower alcohols, higher acidity, and lower pH's versus over ripe syrupy fruit bombs that at most have five-seven years of aging potential is over for me. Maybe 12% is too low and a couple of degrees more ripeness would be better but that is all that is needed. Get flavor at 22-24 brix not 28-30.

  6/18/19, 7:42 PM - Thanks for the tasting note, I still have 2 bottles of this 67 in my cellar. I'm not sure what to do with them. My biggest worry is the lead content in the capsule, which is evident with the slight corrosion on the outside. Did your bottle show any lead corrosion on the capsule?
