92 Points

Saturday, September 13, 2008 - DAWGS September 2008 Wine Dinner (bigred_seeker's house in University Park, Dallas, TX): WIML92?

Tasted September 13, 2008 at an offline.

Opened and decanted about 4 hours before double decanting back into the bottle and serving about 1 hour later. Purple color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Lovely perfumed nose with added notes of currants and plums. Flavors of currants, plums and some black cherry notes on the medium to long finish. Medium to bright acidity, medium to firm tannins, full bodied. Hold is the recommendations but this is quite tasty right now with plenty of airtime and tempting to open right now from a hedonistic standpoint. Let's call it WIML92 right now but might pick up a point or so with time in bottle.
