Community Tasting Note

  • rocknroller wrote: 96 points

    July 28, 2022 - "Guy's Night": Aged Napa (Joe & Khem's Place, Mpls): Very dark red/purple color. Splash decanted . Drank a glass plus over 2 hours. Drank in a flight with a '96 Abreu Madronna Ranch and a '96 Togni. Wow, this was electric on the nose and palate. Cassis, eucalyptus, black cherry, leather, huckleberry pie, subtle graphite, and some earth. The palate shows those same gorgeous black and purple fruits, leather, menthol, glycerin, graphite, truffle, full bodied and really long. This was so sleek, impeccably polished and well integrated. 95+ to 96pts.
