Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, January 31, 2024 - Holy moley.
I last had this about 6 years ago. It has started to come around, but it's clear that its finest days are a decade or two or three from now. Brought to a lunch with a smart friend and blinded him with it. From the nose, he guessed old world, possibly grenache or cab franc. He got close to cabernet sauvignon, but the herbal note - not an earthy one - threw him. He was shocked to hear it was domestic, but then we let it sit another hour as we ate, and he noted that it was like a relative to 1970s or early '80s Cal cabs, but more Sonoma than Napa, which seems right to me. He laughed at the reveal, because he has had the 2019 WITH KETAN sitting in the middle of Jasud, and the connection became clear when he saw the label. A truly special experience, best of the last 12 months if not more. Will. Last.
