Sunday, April 1, 2007 - I'm sure this has tons of potential, but right now it is far from enjoyable... I decanted it 6 hours and to be honest I think it was too long. I experienced this effect before: wines shut down after being open for some time. Other tasting notes make clear that there has to be a slot in which it is enjoyable already. The nose was the best about the wine... but on the palate this was a tannin monster with smoked bacon like aromas... not on the fruity side at all and "off balance" is a compliment. The finish was really long of course and let's hope this wine comes together over the next 10+ years. My 90+ points that the wine has enormous power and potential. I don't think it will eventually get more than 95-96 points.
