Community Tasting Note

RGCM Gananda Likes this wine:

Friday, June 8, 2018 - Prior bottle was almost nine months ago and this wine continues to show at a high level. Mix of black and red cherry, along with floral, vanilla and earth notes on the nose. Medium bodied and accessible from opening, but rounded out with increased balance and depth over almost four hours. More black cherry then red cherry upfront (positive bottle variation?) with plum as opposed to raspberry through the middle and then just slightly tart red cherry towards the back. Fruit was quite pretty showing both nuance and depth, while still being very much in balance with the acidity behind. Glad I opened this bottle when I did. I still believe it can hold at this level for the next 12-18 months with additional life afterwards, but right now feels like peak. The complexity, depth and balance aren't going to get better. I would drink before 2020 to enjoy where this wine is now.
