Community Tasting Notes 45

  • RDB Wine Does not like this wine: 50 points

    October 21, 2023 - October 21, 2023. Drank from Bin south 17, with Crystal and Aline. Slight acid nose. Deep dark purple. Dry acid presentation lots of chalk, fruit passed. 5/10.

    November 5, 2022 - The Nearly Annual Lyon 10 Year Retro Tasting #24, Wines of Washington (Lyon Again, Eugene, OR): First word in my notes for this blind tasting was, "beautiful". Not a bad start. More obviously tannic than the Palengat before it, this leaned into its creme de cassis, stone, tobacco, cocoa and spice with no apologies! 94+ down to 93 on day 2. Now-2027.

  • jmcmchi Likes this wine:

    March 27, 2022 - Open 7 hours, 3 hour decant

    The additional air softened the rough edges some people have mentioned

    With lamb and flageolets. Opening bramble continuing to sweet woody and blueberry notes

    Tannins integrating well

    November 19, 2021 - Smooth integrated new world WA cab. Have bought some of the Upchurch wines since tasting these.

    June 19, 2021 - PHMG WAG: Two Shots and a Vertical Tasting (Lyon Quarantine Site): This bottle was excellent! Pretty much the same score and note as 6 years ago:

    Layers of black fruit, pencil, mocha, and stone with some serious grip.

    Ok, it's relaxing its grip at this age! Now-2027
