Community Tasting Note

Sunday, August 31, 2008 - Ruby red to the edge with no browning. Reticnt nose. Still youthful with a solid core of structured fruit. A beatiful wine but not quite at peak yet. Huge dark toned fuits of blackberry, cassis and a hint of plum but still cool without over ripeness or excess alcohol. A tad four square as the tannins are not fully resloved. Classic St Estephe rusticity that needs another five years to smooth out. Noticable so following a sublime La Mission HB 1990. A very good wine but wait a few more years.
