Community Tasting Notes 3

    November 10, 2019 - Outstanding and terrific value. Moderate concentration and excellent balance, early tertiary notes, medium-long finish. Turning the corner but lots of life left.

    February 15, 2018 - Wine Spectator rated it 92:
    A big, broad-shouldered Cabernet, with lots of toast
    and mocha leading the way for dark plum, currant
    paste, fig, graphite and coca notes. The long,
    smoky, fleshy finish lets the toast influence take
    over. Drink now through 2013.448 cases made.
    -JM
    Wine Enthusiast rated it 93:
    This is a dense and concentrated wine, still in its youth, with
    heady, fruity tones of black plum, berry, cassis and date that
    are layered with notes of licorice, cigar box and roasted
    cocoa nib. The mouthfeel is ripe and lush, with firm,
    gripping tannins providing balance and structure, lingering
    long on the finish. Drink now-2020.
