Disappointing. 2011 vintage consumed in 2018. Disjointed structure, way too harshly acidic.
I would say perhaps it should cellar a little longer, but it was already showing oxidative qualities, and not in a good way.
This all of course is the vintage though. I've had other vintages that were tasty. 2011 was cold and perhaps the fruit didn't ripen sufficiently.
