January 11, 2020 - Rhys Alpine/Horseshoe Tasting at Frank's (Frank Murray's Casa): Bagged but knew all but which vineyard was in which bag. Still quite grapey on the nose. This also showed a strong celery stems note. Again the Alpine was richer on the palate. This one showed some baking spice and wood notes. It also seemed simpler and a touch sharp. Almost sullen. This one also probably could have used quite a bit of air I'm guessing. Kind of brooding and really allowed the Horseshoe to steal it's thunder. But I wouldn't be worried. It seems like there is a good wine here that's just sort of sulking in how we woke it
