Community Tasting Note

SchlaepDog Likes this wine:

Thursday, January 1, 2015 - Purchased from Costco in 2009, stored in temp controlled cellar. Lots of crushed raspberry and other red fruits, subtle spice aromas up front, the wine is full of raspberry and Bing cherry fruit with cassis mixed in as well. The wine turns silky in the mid-pallete followed by a medium long finish of more red fruit where some oak spice and mineral notes fold into the profile as wel. Tannins are well integrated, the wine still has nice acid to provide freshness, overall, a very nice bottle of aged Napa cab. I have the most experience with aged Napa cab, and I would rate this wine as a success. Peaking now, wine will hold for a few years, but why wait.
