91 Points

Saturday, November 11, 2006 - WIML91,NOWA,WS91

Tasted November 11, 2006 at a retail tasting. Opened and served in a Reidel Restaurant Magnum glass. Dark garnet color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Nose of black licorice, some coffee notes and black cherries. Flavors of black cherries, a touch of mocha, some red plums and just a tad of bitters on the finish. Medium acidity, tannins and body. Well balanced overall. I’d recommend holding this wine a couple of years before trying again. Seems youthful but built to last a while. This was my number one wine of the flight. Bought two bottles for the cellar and probably should have bought a few more. Recommended.
