Community Tasting Note

• Bathtub58 wrote: 89 points

  August 1, 2019 - Day 1: Popped and poured. Consumed 1/3 bottle over two hours. Minimal aromas and flavors. A bit astringent. Not much to enjoy here now or in the near term. I’m not convinced there is long term upside. Replaced cork.
  Day 30: Fell apart, whereas I’ve seen other wines blossom with this much time.
