December 2, 2021 - This is still good value, but not as good as the 2016. There are lively cherry flavors in the foreground, and lots of woody tannins in the background. The fruit doesn't seem robust enough for the treatment it received in the winery, and while the woodiness may seem less intrusive after another two years of cellaring, I'm not convinced that the wine will ever be fully integrated. Note, though, that I am suggesting some quite high standards for a wine that costs well under $20, and that the imperfect wine still provides plenty of drinking pleasure.
