Community Tasting Note

  • JERB Likes this wine: 94 points

    August 9, 2020 - Oh my... That glorious Cabernet nose! It makes you want to just park your nose inside the rim of the glass for a long luscious encounter with the wonderful aromatics. I got dark red fruit, some dusty chocolate and a hint of baking spice. I got sumptuous! One hour decant. Drinking beautifully right now! So glad I have dear friends with deeper cellars than mine! IMHO... this still has a few years left, in spite of the CT suggestion that the drinking window started closing in 2019.
