2019 vintage. Oak attack if served above 65 degrees. Def essential to get that temp down to the 55-64 range so as to conduct pleasant conversation. Otherwise, it’s just screaming/noise. Previous vintage exhibited the same tendency whereas 2017 and before generally didn’t (to this extreme). Hoping it’s not trending that direction but suspect it is. Some splendid complexities once past the rapids. Medium-heavy body. 4.22.26.

Winemaker dinner at Nari. This was clearly young and tasted next to the 2011 missing the depth of maturity

Two years since I last drank this. Gorgeous once again. Notable acidity. Went down so easy. Did not grow significantly over 4 hours open.
