Community Tasting Note

Friday, January 9, 2015 - ---
COLOR: Deep garnet/purple, opaque
NOTE: My third time with this wine in 3 months, thanks to Coravin. Nose was just full of ripe mulberry/blackberry, vanilla and ash, then mouth was opulent and it persisted into the finish. So much fruit, so much structure. Yikes. Only 50 cases produced. I can't believe I scored a bottle. Laube was right, this is very much in the Schrader spectrum.

DECANT: 1-3 hours
GLASS USED: Bordeaux
TASTE: 9.4 (as high as 9.6 on first tasting)
COST: (see other note)
VALUE:
TRY AGAIN:
CORAVIN'D: Yes, twice prior
PRE-POUR LEVEL: 40%
PAIRING:
