Community Tasting Note

  • DonWinspear Likes this wine: 95 points

    April 1, 2021 - Nice dark color. The nose is fruit focused, mostly red. Some oak coming through. The palate is profound. Cherry, raspberry, blueberry. Maybe a hint of vanilla. It evolves and changes over the time in the glass, suggesting that a decant is advisable. Despite being just 5 years old, the tannins are already fairly relaxed, more than I expected. While it meant for am enjoyable sipping experience, I was anticipating the wine to be a little more "tight" than it was. Still, I can't help but think that this has time in the tank. The finish is moderate to long.
