Community Tasting Note

  • JLuch1 Likes this wine: 94 points

    January 1, 2020 - Decanted for 2 hours in the cellar and drank over dinner (NY Strip basted in Garlic/butter/thyme). It was ready to go after the decant. Nose was enjoyable and expressive. Palate was dark berry fruit, chocolate with sea salt, cassis, and maybe some licorice. Overall nice concentration on this bottle and a nice 30 second finish. I fortunately did not experience any bitterness or bite on this wine at any stage of consumption as was noted by CSimm. Hopefully this is a trend experienced by others after me.

    This wine doesn’t seem to be declining anytime soon, so feel free to cellar these for a few years with confidence. However it’s a nice experience now if you provide a healthy decant. 94-95
