95 Points

Sunday, February 18, 2018 - After trying the Scarlett a week ago my curiosity got the better of me and I decided to try the Scarlett Reserve , knowing full well the wine is purported to be years ahead of its optimal drinking window. After a four hour decant the wine was silky smooth with a long, complex finish, soft tannins and layers of distinctive flavors. Though young and not quite ready for prime time, I enjoyed the notes of raspberry jam, menthol and graphite. Highly extracted and definitely on the sweet side, I agree with other CT members that it is way too early to drink this wine. 95 now, but definitely a point or two upside with patience.
