Saturday, November 10, 2012 - Saturday Tasting Group (Knightsbridge Wine Shop (Northbrook, IL)): Sorry guys. I hate to tip the scale here, but I just wasn't feeling this wine and neither were the majority of the crowd.
Really brooding and black as night. Massive in your face bitter chocolate and blackberries. Some stinky foot, meat and dried herbs.
The palate was big and over the top. The balance wasn't in harmony. Yes, this was only open maybe ten fifteen minutes, but still, think it shoulda shown better.
