WTN: A horse of course

by David M. Bueker » Thu Mar 28, 2019 8:11 pm

2009 Rhys Pinot Noir Horseshoe Vineyard - USA, California, San Francisco Bay, Santa Cruz Mountains (3/28/2019)
There is a light at the end of the Rhys Pinot development tunnel. This still shows healthy red fruit, but it also has loamy earth, leafy underbrush and crushed herbs. The tannins are still apparent, but there is sufficient fruit to balance. This is on a great path for drinking any time over the next several years.

No. I don't own any 2009 Alpine (no idea why), and the last time I had the 2008 was 2013.
