8.8

2017 vintage. Tasted via Coravin. Light-medium body. Decent enuff musty nose slathered with cola nut, rhubarb, root beer (?!?!) and cranberry interludes. Flavors (and pricing) okay but included a green streak (blend of raw green bell pepper and eucalyptus/menthol) right up front palate that never faded despite oxygen intervention. Bummer in the summer. BLNT (better luck next time). 10.01.25.
