Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Saturday, September 24, 2022 - Tasted over two days.

Inky purple in color. Bouquet of purple and black berries, peppers, gravel, charred earth, and new oak.

The wine tastes like it smells. Somewhat over extracted, robust, and powerfully structured. Still, it conveys very good sense of place. Likely to always be overdone, yet several years in bottle will soften the edges. It should be in a good place by 2030. Improvement seems possible.
