Community Tasting Note

Thursday, April 23, 2020 - We acquired this wine with a cellar we bought, and this couldn't be sent to auction so here it is with grassfed London Broil, low expectations. Serviceable claret and intact, a little boring with not a ton of character. Still I was happy enough to have it to wet my whistle during dinner. Sometimes it's good to have a wine you don't love - you drink less and enjoy the next better bottle even more. Worth saying that a recent bottle of the 1982 vintage of this wine was excellent. Can't expect much from a '94.
