Wednesday, May 29, 2013 - Medium dark ruby; wonderful spice laden berry fruits and slight tinge of oak on the nose; firm entry, showing the wine’s structure; round and full with a velvety texture; rich and lush black cherry fruit coats the mouth; moves well back on the palate – tannins well under the fruit; flavors swell into a nice finish with the fruit dominating. Extremely attractive, albeit a notch or two below the La Tache’s we tasted earlier. This wine appears to be ready now, but has the ingredients to last well for at least another decade.
