Community Tasting Note

Sunday, July 2, 2023 - Stellar. If I can sum it up, classic and extremely well balanced. The structure is impeccably refined, a tower of numerous dark fruit enveloped in floral and herbaceous notes. The sniff of acidity is perfect, and CARRIES thru the entire nose to swallow journey. Tannins are still prominent, but softened with maturity. Even the color shows the strength of this wine with just a touch of tawniness on the edges - wife called it the touch of wrinkles on a phenomenally distinguished face. Since we were enjoying this for so long, caught a whiff of charry leaves, sandlewood, and very faint citrus.

This bottle is testament to keeping a cellar and filling it with wines from the old world. I just bought another.
