  Drank the other half of the bottle, drank with Denner 2019 Dirt Worshiper, Keplinger was magnificent, purity of fruit, great structure and complexity, the Denner was tart and not as intense, drank with baked oysters and NJ baby back ribs, last bottle so onto the next vintage,fascinating to drink wines side by side, need to try with a Rhône Syrah.

  Brought to a restaurant so I was unable to decant. Did not matter. What a wonderful wine, perfectly balanced with no hard edges. Helen Keplinger continues to amaze.

  Happy Valentine’s Day, not sure if I am intimidated by reviews, more subtle than expected, 14.8% abv, Coravined a half bottle,purity of fruit, tannic but drank easily, complex flavors and great structure, drank with fried rice and shrimp with veggies, and dumplings, would drink again and will see how the rest of the bottle develops, need to compare this with Rhône Syrah, good stuff.
