Community Tasting Note

Saturday, October 24, 2015 - Half bottle purchased directly from the winery. Youthful deep ruby all the way to the rim. Marvelous nose that leaps out of the glass-mint, wintergreen, and olive. Medium to full bodied, densely packed but yielding with air. Ripe cassis and blackberry lifted by subtle herbaceousness, good acidity, and round tannins. Particularly in light of this being in small format, I'd imagine that this must be a 50 year wine. Its concentration without excessive extraction is just thrilling, and the balance is superb. The best Cabernet-based wine from anywhere that I've had in a long time (ok, I'll admit, there have not that many, but still...).
