Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Saturday, November 27, 2004 - Wine with friends (Seattle, WA, USA): Oh wow, this was perhaps my wine of the night. The nose shows massive notes of lead pencil and graphite, gaining aromatic complexity with time. Mmmm, the palate is muscular with sweet, black fruit and loads of minerality, so balanced and pure. This finishes out with string notes of graphite and mineral. Throughout this wine exudes the essence of old-world Cabernet and is everything I would want in a classic Claret, gorgeous!
