Community Tasting Note

97 Points

Monday, January 19, 2015 - Pre Davos Wine Forum tasting (Zumikon, Switzerland): This was pretty easy to pick out from the very deep color and the not so subtle hints of mint and eucalyptus. Saturated and powerful on the palate with a sweetness that I attribute to the Cabernet in the blend. (I was assuming it was 5%, but apparently in this vintage it was 13%.) It is a wow wine that easily holds it own next to a stellar Chave and Guigal La Landonne. Fantastic wine!
