Community Tasting Note

  • Jdwinedrinker Likes this wine:

    September 18, 2020 - Decanted a couple hours. Surprisingly soft (for what I expected from a 2013 at this stage). Sweet, red fruits with a touch of spicy vanilla on the finish. Delicious but for me lacking the layer of herbaceous complexity that I find in Bordeaux. I have 3 left and would likely drink over the next couple years. Cheers
