Community Tasting Note

• pinoteer Does not like this wine: 79 points

  June 12, 2021 - Someone threw fresh grass clippings, lemon juice, and cat pee in a blender, hit frappé, and filtered the resulting slurry into a bottle. No, that's not a good thing. Just someone's twisted concept of what good SB should taste like.

I'm left scratching my head--until I have a fistful of hair--that this "style" (and I use that term generously) has so many apparent fans.
