Thursday, June 24, 2010 - Wines with Old friends (Hamilton, NJ): nose: dark and rich nose of bacon fat, black cherries, smoke, lavender and bits of olives. Real good depth with a real savory and meaty quality to it on the nose that is classic cote rotie

taste: great and young medium/full feel with good supporting tannins as well as medium+ acidity with meaty tones of bacon fat, black cherries, bits of spice and lavender with a touch of olives as well

overall: a bit rough around the edges on the both the nose and palate right now. Could certainly use a bit more age, but is approachable with a decent decant. This had a real savory quality to it on both the nose and palate right now
