Community Tasting Note

• iamandyc Likes this wine: 95 points

  January 19, 2022 - A beautiful bottle that held up nicely over 3 days. Dark, rich with a long dynamite finish. Layers of flavor -- earth, tobacco, mocha and other nice oak notes. Fine tannins that keep it alive on the finish. Might have been its deepest and best on final day. Really going to miss Rudius -- love Jeff's work and his own label was a much better QPR than Tor, Boich, etc...

There are no more Rudius wines to purchase from him. He is concentrating on the winemaking he does for TOR, Boich and others.
