Community Tasting Note

  • Torchy wrote: 94 points

    April 3, 2021 - Just over three years since the previous bottle. The wine has improved but is still perceived as young. Dark ruby red without discoloration towards the rim. Wonderful nose with light mint, leather, cherries, and darker fruits like cassis and blueberry. On the palate, the wine has a tight structure with ever-so-present tannins. Taste of red fruit, cherries, leather, licorice, and light tobacco. My belief is that this wine still has an up-side to it. Drink now or hold.
