Community Tasting Note

  • MicklethePickle Likes this wine: 90 points

    June 1, 1991 - At Singer & Foy survey of '84 cabs. Dark ruby color. Coats the glass. Deep, lovely, varietal aroma. Blackcurrants and cassis. Just a hint of mint. Lovely. Pretty nice wine in the mouth, too. Very astringent with a boatload of unresolved tannin, packed with fruit. Tobacco notes too. Great future. Drinkable now, but could use a few more years. 5-12-15-8: 90/100.
