Lost tasting notes when saving...from memory, PnP. Plum color. Nose smelled remarkably like a frozen pizza...tomato, mozzarella, basil. Palate was raspberry, spice, black tea. Smooth mouth feel.

Decanted 5 hours. It was good. It was smooth with a nice long finish. But I was expecting more aromatics and greater depth. Next one needs to be in 5 yrs and next 5 yrs after that. Confident this will age well.

Rhône or Nôwhere 2022 (Malcom, Nebraska): Somewhat analogous with my 2013 Chave Blanc impression, this was more about peering into the bright future in store for this wine. The potential is simply buried deep beneath the surface. All the stuffing is there for a special wine down the road. While enjoyable now, patience will be handsomely rewarded. Personally, I wouldn’t touch well-cellared examples until much closer to 2030.

Ken's Head to Head high-low blind shootout (Casa Tomek): Beautiful nose of garrigue, raspberry, anise, kirsch and red licorice. Wonderful mouthfeel, very silky on the palate. A bit on the tight side, so this wine has some room to improve. Finished 2nd of 2 and was the more expensive wine.
