Community Tasting Note

89 Points

Monday, March 12, 2007 - (375)A bit tight at first, but opens nicely after about 90 minutes in decanter. Black plum and cherry fruit, a bit of cedar. As it is open a bit some tobacco/cigarbox notes come out. Weightwise this is a bit modest for a 2000, but I find it quite enjoyable. The oak notes are more cedar than vanilla, the acidity is enough to flatter the fruit,the finish nice and clean. My guess is 750s might benefit from being held a bit
