Just not feeling it. Big alcohol, hot wine in the mouth. Has a bit of an identity problem. Can't decide if it wants to be a Cab or a Syrah. Doesn't float my boat. She had some but wasn't feeling it either. In fact she thought it was a cab that had gone bad.....that tells you something. With the exception of a great Super Tuscan and one cab a few years back, it's always surprising that with the grapes Round Pond has, they don't support better wines. Is it a vineyard issue or a winemaker issue? Inquiring minds would like to know......I've joined and quit the wine club twice now.
