Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Friday, December 9, 2011 - Tasted in double-blind fashion at Vintage Wines, Ltd., with the bottle generously being provided by Rob Norberg. The bottle was well-cellared and decanted approximately four hours prior to the tasting. It was then serially tasted over the ensuing three hours. The robe is opaque garnet and the nose shows intense aromas of black raspberries, potpourri, licorice, cocoa and earth. Full-bodied on the palate, with medium acidity, medium supple tannins and well-integrated alcohol. The flavors are luscious and in line with the nose. A silky mouth texture persists throughout the solid middle palate and the smooth finish is very long. Bravo to this early Perse offering! Drink now-12/20.
