Community Tasting Note

91 Points

Saturday, July 22, 2023 - purchased at the winery in Oct 2013 during a trip with the WWS folks. 13.7 alcohol.

Sort of a lost-in-the-cellar situation. On the nose, cherry, some chocolate, also a hint of cocoa and herbs. These follow through in the mouth with integrated tannins, good acid/fruit balance, and med+ long finish. It has lost much of its fruit but there’s enough left to keep my interest. Very surprised and delighted that the wine has held up so well although I see no upside in keeping any bottles longer if you have any.
