Community Tasting Note

Saturday, March 28, 2015 - At Everest in Chicago. The sommelier decanted this wine and it showed an incredible golden/amber/orange cool in the decanter. Initially quite tight on the nose. A bit of air awakens this beauty from its slumber. Really indescribable aromatics that include both sweet and savory overtones. A wine one could smell for hours before taking a sip--each time you go back there is something even more inviting. When you drink this wine it's immediately evident that it's a wine of incredible class and breed. Not a single facet out of balance. Words again fail to describe flavors and textures that seemingly only time can provide. I predicted at the initial pour that the last sip would be these best, and it was try. This wine needs plenty of air to show it's best, and well stored bottles should continue to provide great enjoyment for many years.
