2012 Promontory
Community Tasting Note

94 Points
Thursday, September 7, 2023 - Promontory - double blind tasting. 18 Penultimate, 12 Prom and 17 Prom. 21 Prom in barrel, not part of blind tasting.
Last in the blind for me, but clearly the one with the most long term aging potential, even at 11 years from vintage. I wouldn't touch this for another 5-10 years. So much structure here and IMO, will surpass the two in the lineup at some point. Quite big and still tannic now, but time will reward with this wine. 93 today, but do not let the score fool you. This will be much more in 5-10 years.
