Community Tasting Note

srh Likes this wine:

Saturday, November 26, 2016 - "Blind" Tasting (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): Cf. the CellarTracker Article link [lower lft] to get specific info for this vintage.

N: Berries, jam, notes of choc? Seems deep

P: MF body; Ripe, ALMOST swtish frt (approaching threshold R.S.?) met by an astringent pucker as it evolves into a fairly LONG, very, VERY slightly astringent finish. Over extracted for my palate, though some would love it, I'd drink now & over the next several yrs. Guess: '14 CA C.S. 90 pts Dunnuck, + 3 scores on wine-searcher's Tasting Notes pg. [As of mid Apr '20, wine-searcher shows no sources for this vintage].

Addendum: Also tasted on 10/15/16 & 2/25/17.
