Community Tasting Note

  October 6, 2020 - Vibrant purple in the glass, the nose is silent. Solid silky fruit up front followed by tannic grip on the palate. More acid than typical in a Bordeaux, a touch of astringency, wood frame is normal at this age. No flaws detected, will likely provoke varying reactions dependent upon acid tolerance, attraction to clean fruit, preference for younger wines (this will age well) and expectation of sub notes (complexity) which I don't find.
