Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 4, 2017 - A wide variety at LWS (Gruaud, D'Issan, Rinaldi +++) (Colonial Beverage, Chesterland Ohio): Wes opened this as a bonus. It had about an hour of air and while it obviously needs more (or cellaring) it was great. Deep ruby in color. Lovely nose that with some coaxing shows roses, cherries, tar and also a bit of an herbal note (in a good way). On the palate, this has strong tannins. Cherries with tight layers that explode in a swirled glass and then repack into a dense wine. Long finish. I know this is not inexpensive, but a great wine. I hope Wes has some left to try today, i bet it was better. Thanks.
