Community Tasting Note

• jviz wrote: 95 points

  August 15, 2021 - This had been kept in a cold cellar, purchased on release. We popped and poured into the decanter, then finished over an hour or so. It could have used more time as the wine still needed to open a bit, but this bottle was unusually dark purple in color, with fairly classic notes of cassis and blackberry fruit. Still some fine firm tannin left, perhaps not surprising as the wine was made by Randy Dunn, I’m told.
