Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 18, 2014 - Heady aromas of cherries and toast. Good minerality in the taste, which tells me that this will gain complexity as it ages. The tannin has receded though, leaving a velvety smooth wine that is a delight to drink right now. With the tannin resolved, I'm not sure how much more this will mature, but there is plenty of fruit in this luscious bottling. Drink now or hold for a few years. A wonderful Pauillac.
