Community Tasting Note

ex-sommelier Likes this wine:

Wednesday, October 28, 2020 - Nice evolution as this opened over a few hours. Well defined through lines of minerality, tart cherries, honeycomb, and flowers. Delicate at first, but fills out with notes of turbinado sugar, smoke, and sagebrush. Palate is also fairly precise and filigreed until it's paired with food. This supercharges with food (braised chicken) showing fuller, meaty texture and intense violet perfume, but also loses some of that elegance.

This had some nice elements, but no fireworks, and the nose is fairly modest. Despite the delicate showing at first it is more than robust enough to stand up to food, and was better for it.
