Community Tasting Note

90 Points
Monday, January 29, 2018 - Popped and poured. Boysenberry and blueberries, dense core of fruit, mid bodied drying tannins, medium to full bodied, good length. Compared to last bottle in August, the wine has tightened up and put on weight, acidity is now more settled. A good prospect to cellar, especially for the price. While ok to drink now, the best years are ahead of it and I would leave for another 5-8 years before checking in again.
