Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 21, 2011 - Monthly Miscellaneous Bordeaux Tasting (K&L Wines, San Francisco): Deep ruby. Closed but some creosote and anise-one of those wines where you'd swear that you can actually smell the tannins. Dry but incredible extract and underlying blackberry confit. Long with ripe, round tannins and some perceptible wood which will surely be absorbed over time. Outstanding potential but it must be decades away from maturity. Despite this, it is not too severe to taste and appreciate now, which is quite different than old style St. Estephes.
