Community Tasting Note

  • Kaleido Likes this wine: 96 points

    February 1, 2021 - Decanted for 90 mins. Heady nose of eucalyptus, plum, licorice, vanilla. Very balanced on the palate with nice freshness followed by layers of dark fruits and cherry; ends with a complex finish of milk chocolate, cherry cola, creamy vanilla. Full bodied. Finish 40+ seconds. Juicy and not jammy.
