2020 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes and two hours. Medium body. Fay Vineyard long a favorite of mine but this was simple and underwhelming. Haven’t a clue with what they were trying to do with this but never would have pegged it as being from Fay. Haven’t tasted through much of the winery’s newer catalog (made since 2019) but what I have tasted through isn’t up to previous efforts going back to the 70’s. Pity. 08.02.25.
