Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, May 3, 2005 - Okay, I'm not sure if I should be glad that I have 2 more bottles. We tasted this after the Kistler which we happened to enjoy with some oyster rockefellers. The FSG just did not have anything there. Absolutely no fruit, and no substance. Took 3/4 of the bottle home and immediately tried it. Now it's showing a little more character, oak blew off a little bit. But it seemed very acidic. Maybe it's just not my style. Corked it back up for tomorrow.

Tried this on second night--put on a little weight, the fruit was definitely starting to show. Evolved into something nice. I don't know if I can go as high as DT did (98), but I think this will be a really good wine, it's really just young right now. Will hold on to the other 2 I have for a few years.
