Community Tasting Note

Saturday, March 7, 2015 - Dinner at Ali and Adele's in Princeton (Princeton, NJ): At Ali & Adele's House (Princeton): This was decanted when we arrived -- and drank best 4 hours later. Was very tight for 2+ hours, then some lovely notes of cherry, stone, lead pencil and a little tobacco on the finish.
Best with the duck pate (with foie gras). Delicious on its own but tighter than it should be. These need 2-3 more years, I think, to drink well. Not as showy as the 2003 vintage (2-3 years ago) but lots of potential. HOLD.
