Community Tasting Note

  • cyc Likes this wine: 91 points

    September 27, 2021 - As with many young Goodfellow wines, this wine does not reward the impatient. On day 1 it was a bit unbalanced, although not nearly as tart and acidic as a 2013 Whistling Ridge I had last year. However, by day 3 it had evened out substantially and was a real pleasure to drink. If popping this bottle, take your time and enjoy it over several days.

They took a little longer to shut down that I had originally expected(very savory vintage for us) but are definitely there now. Extended air will help(as you found) but it’s probably worth it to hold them for 3-4 years at this point.
