Community Tasting Note

Monday, April 14, 2014 - Bam. This was spot on. The aromatics just kept coming and developing and growing as the wine opened over the course of a couple of hours. Likewise the texture that started out as gorgeous developed into a sublime combination of supremely rich and incredibly light. This still carries pristine red primary fruit but there is an underpinning of earth and a pick up of minerals in the finishing tannins. This is probably as good as it will be in this incarnation as a young wine but there could be a second act as an older one that is equally special if different. Right now this was glorious. Paired perfectly with Sudan Farm rack of lamb with a Morel mushroom sauce and green garlic pesto risotto. Just amazing to think what I purchased this wine for ten years ago. Sigh.
