October 27, 2023 - Part of a walk around tasting at Alpine Country Club. Hard to tell whether we liked the 18 Alluvial or the 2018 Heritage more. I think we ended up giving the alluvial the edge : a little more restrained, a little less extraction. Others might reverse the preference.
Score 93. Relative to expectations: ++ -
