Community Tasting Note

• MicklethePickle Likes this wine: 94 points

  September 26, 2021 - Popped and poured. Dark amber with a yellow rim. Excellent nose with its best trait being impeccable balance. Walnut bouquet. Sweet caramel in the mouth. At 28 this is fantastic. Long, rich, mahogany finish. Really goes on forever. This is really special, and I bet it only gets better with a bit of air. Wow, at $60 purchase price this was a bargain. 4-13-18-9: 94/100.
