Community Tasting Note

Friday, March 31, 2006 - Interesting - without looking at the prior tasting note from 18 month ago, I had with grilled lamb chops the same as 18 months ago...

Also interestingly, this wine had not changed that much.This one had a whiff of volatile acidity, but that soon blew off. Lots of dark fruit, tobacco and slightly herbal notes on the nose - still think there must be lots of cab franc in here. Lovely sweet fruit, ripe midpalate with juicy acidity and soft dry tannins. Very nice.

Not quite as structured or obviously rich in the midpalate as the Ciel du Cheval yesterday, but this is a very nicely constructed wine.
