P: Med body; NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by a puckerish astringency which only somewhat resolves by the LONG finish with a bitter/swtness (60:40) to the DUSTY tannins. My VG+ *will* be low IF addt'l cellaring helps. 15.8% ABV; '19 Contest Results: Golds @ Toast of the Coast & S.D. Int'l Challenge (90 pts @ $45), and Silver @ S.F. Chronicle
