• davidandrose Likes this wine: 96 points

  August 1, 2014 - Decanted and followed over 4 hours. Pours inky purple with heady, rich aromas right out of the bottle; Mrs Davidandrose closed her eyes and said she felt she was in Napa, with her head in a recently-emptied cask. Wine was a little backwards right out of the bottle with some disjointed green notes, silky mouthfeel and a brief mid-palate finish, but this changed over time.
  
  Silkiness dissipated at the 4 hour mark, rich blueberry, medium+ toast oak, tight wood feel but a longer finish that continues back-palate. In a very nice place but will retaste within a year to gauge longevity of remaining bottles.
