Community Tasting Note

Tim Heaton Likes this wine:

Friday, June 28, 2013 - Aerated to decanter 2 hours, returned to bottle, served non-blind. Much different (and better) than the magnum I had last June (I think the provenance for tonight's bottle was excellent, the mag, not so much). Dark ruby, nearly opaque. Not yet at peak, the aromas insisted upon being coaxed before they offered up, mint, camphor, dried red floral, dark spice, blackberries, cherry skin and herbs. Finely textured, well-lifted, gorgeous tannins. Even with aeration, this was not giving up all it had, but did suggest that a revisit in 5 years would be handsomely rewarded. best 2018 - 2026
