Community Tasting Note

Vinnut Likes this wine:

Sunday, November 27, 2016 - Medium-deep, dark garnet in color with some clearing at the edges (no bricking at all). Forward, attractive & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of floral & earthy/dusty notes, tobacco, leather, dried herbs, mint/anise, savory spices, minerals & a hint of vanilla & toasty oak. Full bodied with very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, intense, complex & lush, ripe fruit flavors of dark sweet cherries, blackberries & black plums with herbs, spices, minerals, earthy & a touch of vanilla & toasty oak. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present & appears to have the fruit & structure to continue its development with additional aging. A nicely aged yet massive & lush Napa Cab still going quite strong at 34 years of age with at least another 6 to 8 years ahead of it. Clean & intact cork with an excellent fill.
