Community Tasting Note

• Purple Tooth wrote: 92 points

  October 17, 2019 - This is just making a wide slow turn towards France! I can now detect some scorched earth and see that this is heading into a long slow ride into the right direction for my taste. Still has a new world or Califforniaesque front, but the back end is now showing Bordeaux. I'm happy about this buy! drink with a 90 minute decant or better yet, HOLD for 3 years before next one if you can.

  I have a magnum of this wine. Taking into account I am 70 when do you think I can crack one open? Dave
