Wine Critics Notes:

Allen Meadows - Score: 88-91 (2020 Jan.)

This is the first wine to display any significant reduction and it's enough to flatten the fruit. It also extends to the palate of the bigger-bodied flavors that offer good richness and ample punch on the lingering finale that also reflects a milder touch of bitterness. Reduction on the palate is never a good sign but in this case my sense is that this will clean up once it's racked.
