Community Tasting Note

  • iamandyc Likes this wine: 91 points

    November 25, 2021 - A touch better than my previous bottle earlier this year - still too young. Did get much fuller and riper with 2 hours in the decanter -- nicer yet on day #2. Definitely tobacco and herbs show up but the fruit is front and center. Hoping layers of flavor and nuance show up in the years ahead.

    12/3/21, 5:03 AM - Hello FB! Ed announced he is not selling any of the 2020 vintage. I received my 2019's but haven't drank any yet. From 2018, I have sampled each but only drank a bottle or 2 of each. Broken Shale is my favorite so far. Haven't tried the reserve. Also a bit tough since my experience with '18s in general make me believe they'll get better with another year or 2 in the bottle.
