Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, August 6, 2008 - (Dinner with d-rob). Decanted for one hour and consumed over three hours. Wow! a 100+ point nose. On the attack, it's all black raspberries, kirsch and prunes with beautiful, sweet tanin. This would be a profound wine, except, as one would expect from the vintage, it lacks the punch and the fruit on the mid palate and finish to make it great. Notwithstanding those faults, this is an incredibly enjoyably, integrated, balanced and delightful wine. Changed very little over the course of the night, until the third hour, when it started to decline slightly and become acidic. Certainly drinking well know and this has the stuffing to go another 10 years, but I don't think it will improve from here. Enjoy!
