2019 vintage. Not decanted. Tasted after being open one hour. Light body. Decent frontal concentration that glided and dimmed appropriately to the finish. Nice sustenance throughout without being overbearing in any particular facet. Last tasted 9.24.23 and it was a trip and a bit unbalanced (8.9). This was worlds better. 3.15.24.

Mar 15th, 20242019 vintage. Interesting wine. Medium-heavy body. Decanted and tasted after 45 mins-2.5 hrs. Seemingly unfined/unfiltered as it was throwing a little chunky and powdery sed. Ended up tasting more like an experiment in combining California AVA's together on the fly/in the same glass. Big ripeness, mixed with a Cran-Grape component with a generous amount of additional acidity thrown in. Was better earlier on and got weirder the longer it was open. Obviously suffering through the indiscretions of youth but give this one some time and patience. Needs a lot of latitude. 9.23.23.
