March 6, 2020 - Bought a 12b case for 20/b from a local independent eclectic wine ship; this is #1. Med-dark purple; reticent nose with some Rhone fruits down in there; subtle Rhone fruits, good mouthfeel; bit of persistence. Develops some over 24h; needs time. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: For me, scores on a "100-point scale" are misleading. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. This is notable when considering quality, age, and price.
