Friday, February 14, 2020 - And its baaaaaaack...
Decided to pop the cork on this last night, after unsuccessfully trying to find a bottle of the 2013 vintage.
The past couple times I drank this (6/22/19, 8/23/18), I was nonplussed, but thankfully this bottle performed exactly like the one I had on 6/2/18. Not sure if this was sleeping, but its awake now with a two hour decant.
Just a great bottle of vino, with red fruits showing in glass, a full bodied (but not too much) profile, full mid palate, and integrated tannins. It seemed to perfectly balance the profile of both the Oakville and Stag's Leap sites this wine is derived from.
I dont often go to wine-searcher the night of to try and buy more of a wine, preferring to wait a day and then reassess, but this wine just speaks to me.
96 now with upside over next 3--5 years.
