Community Tasting Note
Marknob Does not like this wine:
85 Points
Friday, September 18, 2020 - This wine came with high expectations based on exceptional reviews. Must admit I was very underwhelmed. 4 hours of decanting and it left.me .wamting. Light and not much substance or body..A real hole in the palate and nothing special. Quite disappointed. I paid $140 for this and money not well spent. Just don't get the hype.

I am not sure we drank the same wine. I did a full day decant, and the wine was still powerful and brooding at first pour, although much less punchy than when I had an initial tasting sip on open. Try another bottle perhaps? Maybe this style of wine is just not to your taste.
cheers!

But the joys of drinking wine.........as the enjoyment and experience is always different for each individual. Cheers to you.
