June 7, 2020 - The green pyrazine character has really faded and integrated with time - it's still there, especially on the nose, but in a nice way and the candied red fruit has emerged. Tannins fully resolved and showing great with a pan seared filet mignon; it finishes long, full and balanced. Glad I waited - might have hit the peak!

May 6, 2019 - Glad I didn't get rid of this case after the last bottle was a write-off - this one is great - drank like classed growth straight from bottle

Encore sur le fruit, équilibré.
Petite pointe d'alcool en rétro mais son seul défaut.. -

November 8, 2016 - Monday Night Blinds (Home (Noe st)): (blind)
Medium minus ruby with slight garnet at the rim.
Slight reduction, slight pyrazines, slight brett? (nah, maybe not). Very ripe. Coffee grounds (could be pyrazines).
Palate:
Dry with a ripe attack.
Elevated alcohol - 14.5%
elevated acid
medium tannins
Wet coffee grounds, but not much signs of oak.
There's a lot of ripeness on here, but not black fruit.
Pyrazinic, new world, no prominent new oak:
Chilean Carmenere
Chilean Cab
Coonawarra Cab
New World cab franc (it's way too alcoholic for Loire CF).
Final Call, based on structure: Chilean Carmenere 2012 - a bit of development.
Actually 2007 Cousino-Macul Antiguas Reservas Cabernet Maipo Valley, 14%.
It's a bit riper than I thought!
