2010 Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon Estate
Community Tasting Note

Thursday, July 4, 2013 - Even with five hours of decanting, this is still too young and tightly wound to evaluate properly. Having said that, here goes: Dark crimson color. Nose of vanilla, berries, cherry pie. This starts very sweet, but additional aeration reveals more subdued, stony aromas. Tight as a drum on the palate, tart and restricted, to the point of crowding out all other flavors. Give this another two years at a bare minimum; not even worth drinking currently. I never do this, but I cannot properly assign a score right now.

7/7/2013 5:27:00 PM - 24 hours later, a bit more expressive on the palate. This has a lovely, dark, brooding taste. Still diificult to score, but would be leaning towards 90-92+. Worth revisiting, to be sure.
