January 9, 2019 - This is known as the Sarah Raal. A touch of RS to it I guess. And the highest scores. The linear intensity on these wines is impressive. Sarah Raal is a renegade from the war. With some green apple to it, interesting approach. I think it needs to be open to really show its explosiveness. The bare RS of 6.6 doesn't show through to my palate. But the RS is 3.19 PH anyway.
Apparently this guy is intense like chucky the American movie. And his response is "ok, ok, I agree." But also apparently has a good heart.
