Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Monday, October 4, 2010 - Medium-light red, bricking. Rich nose of cigar box, thyme, root vegetable, currant and mint; oak present, French. Toothless and open with no residual tannin and light acids, hint of basalmic vinegar element. Flavor is spot-on for the original Estate style long-aged of course: untouched by American oak, firm hand of French Limousin oak, and intense with the old Caymus clone's signature: currants and tobacco. Wonderful, wonderful stuff. Holding OK, From magnum, bottle #5 of six.
