Community Tasting Note

  • Lord of the Bottles Likes this wine: 93 points

    February 11, 2022 - Splash decanted 30 minutes before sitting down. This was most open for the first two glasses with ripe raspberry, milk chocolate, and hints of blackberry with high acidity and a shortish finish of earth and green pencil lead. The wine then shut down with aggressive tannins and much less fruit. This was approachable with air but at this stage comes across as any well-made cabernet merlot blend with the fruit dialled up. Good but not great, or I caught this bottle in a simple phase.
