Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Sunday, January 10, 2016 - A Pair of Carmenere (My House, Waterbury, Vermont with Marcel): Coravin'd for 2 hours. A bit murkier than the Montes, this too is purple/black, opaque. The nose is classy with a potpourri of dried spices, flowers and a complex range of red and black fruit aromas. Excellent, silky texture is polished and elegant leading to rich flavors of ripe black fruit, licorice and pan-roasted spices. Great persistence on the finish, this is a really good showing. Drink now through 2024.

Any ideas for some good cabs for $70 or under? Next year will by more of the big boys. (Exception-this year buying Materium and in December Schtader:) I don't want to crack open an expensive bottle all the time but I also do not want to crack open something cheap with no personality. Dave
