Tuesday, March 14, 2023 - 1993 survey, or filling a hole with Chave (Chicago, IL): I think I liked this a lot more than most at the table. I do love my big wines. This has loads upon loads of American oak -- the empty glass smells like dill. But I really love the way that American oak integrates with the leathery black fruit here, and while the flavours seem to evoke leather, the texture is actually more satin than leather. Still very youthful with tons of gas left in the tank. Have to admit, these kinds of wines really hit the spot once in a while.
