Top Notes For
Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego

2020 vintage. Opened and tasted over the course of an hour. Medium/medium heavy body. Nose both riper and bigger than last handful of vintages. Salinity, Graham cracker, hibiscus, camphor and blueberry all prominent up front. Finely-grained tannins afoot and started to relax the defenses after approx a half hour after opening. Serious and well made. Not a casual Margaux to attempt a PNP with. 10.02.24.
