Community Tasting Note

  • t_moderne wrote: 93 points

    November 14, 2021 - Opened, poured into a decanter, and enjoyed about 1 hour later. Followed for about 3 hours over dinner and after.
    Deep purple color.
    Nose offers a wisp of alcohol at first and then as the wine opened up a bit more showed dark chocolate and cherry.
    Good richness to the wine with sufficient acidity to carry the ripe fruit.
    Has some good weight in the mouth with the tannins nicely integrated.
    An enjoyable wine.
    On this evening, it just did not have the "wow" factor.

    11/16/21, 10:19 AM - Certainly had high expectations given the winemaker and the vineyard parcel and that has some effect on my comment of the absence of 'wow.'

    11/16/21, 12:12 PM - personally, I have given up waiting for these wines to come to fruition. I do not believe I have ever had a Myriad cabernet that has truly impressed me. I have found Quivet and Becklyn more to my taste, but I am pretty much giving up on them as well.
