Community Tasting Note

87 Points

Saturday, April 6, 2013 - Red red and very clear, translucent. Some aging at the edges but not as much as I've seen on other 20 year old wines.

Nose of mintiness and hints of licorice.

Lots of lively acidity on the palate, very zingy and uplifting and upfront. Top-notey with more bright red fruit I typically look for in a wine.

And then on the finish some residual acidity not quite so pleasant, almost certainly the result of acidification.

Good for what it is, if not for me. Still kicking and alive. Others might give it 90 pts.
