Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Thursday, January 20, 2022 - Quite disappointed by this wine. I had high hopes for it based on CT reviews and price point. Nose has anise and blueberries. Palate is just not well integrated. Feels harsh in the beginning followed by blueberries and cigar. Wine is okay ... just not well balanced for a wine at this price point.

    This wine just seems off.
