Community Tasting Note

Saturday, March 13, 2010 - Another potential bargain, thanks to Parker's 88 score 5 years ago.

I liked it, but still a little young to enjoy maximally.

At $30 bottle locally it seems an excellent choice, especially if you have the patience to

let it mature and calm down a bit. Very fruity at present and tasty, but not smooth enough for my

palate. I think it will be appreciated at the dinner I'm going to tonight.

Probably I'll take the advice here and open it early.

I'm new to this wine, but here is a comparison. The store had another year, maybe the 2001,

at about $45 and to me they tasted about the same, only this one tastes younger, and not as smooth

so if you like this label I would give this a try.

The current internet prices on other years for this wine run from $60 to $100.
