Community Tasting Note

  • msuwine wrote: 91 points

    March 18, 2020 - This round but sour Pinot is drinking fine right now, but it lacks the intensity or complexity that I had hoped to find at the six-year mark. Raspberry red in color; medium in body; nose of sour cherry, candied walnut, and cough medicine. Tastes of rhubarb, dried strawberry, cherry tart, and raspberry seeds, with a layered but sour finish. This seems standoffish at the moment, so maybe give it more time. Decant at least an hour. 14.1% alcohol.
