Tasting Notes for bemeyer

Fruit forward, drinking nicely, with slight alcohol finish. Still deciding whether time in the bottle will soften the wine. Drink another in a few months

Light to medium body with fruit. Not clear whether more cellar time will improve wine, possibly will become more balanced. Wait another year to drink next bottle

Needs a long decant or more bottle age. Great flavors but needs to mellow and come together. Drink next bottle after 2020
