Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 21, 2010 - Popped & poured. At first, tons of garrigue, spice, and black cherry aromas explode from the glass. This makes me happy. Youthful, brash, juicy, spicy & tannic on the palate. After 2 hours, texture turns more silky, more focused, black raspberry fruit, black pepper and garrigue, finish is long and delicious. Also some vanilla bean, which I usually don't like, but this was nice. At this stage, not as sweet as the 2001. I do get a touch of heat on the nose and palate, but not bothersome as the wine is so fresh. Loved this when I tasted at Crush wine shop last year (why I bought some) and love it now. 92+
