Community Tasting Note

• La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 91 points

  April 8, 2016 - From a bottle purchased upon release and cellared in pristine fashion, this deep red/garnet wine was decanted and serially tasted over several hours. After two hours in decanter, the nose flaunts aromas of violets, black currants, dried herbs and tobacco. On the palate, it is full-bodied, has low-to-medium acidity, medium fine-grained tannins, no alcoholic heat (13.5%) and a silky mouth texture. The flavors mirror the nose and gain momentum in the middle. Concluding with good length, this is a structured wine that should drink well for several more years. Drink now-12/22.
