Community Tasting Note

  • msuwine wrote: 94 points

    February 29, 2020 - This wine bears the markings of 2017 in the early going: more medium-bodied, more red-fruit, less deep, more floral. Still, this is a delicious and nuanced wine that should get even better in a year or two. I look forward to trying this in 2022.

    Cherry red in color; medium in body (1% milk, when you're used to 2%); nose of cherry pie, menthol, mocha, and violet. Tastes of macerated blueberry, raspberry, anise, and pine needles, with a grainy yet fresh finish (read: not as dense or plush as usual). 14.5% alcohol. Decant at least two hours.
