Friday, July 29, 2011 - nose: gorgeous feminine and silky nose of dried herbs, roses, spice tones, tar, and loads of red cherries. This needed about an hour to really get going, but once it did it just drew you in with its poise and elegance
taste: absolutely gorgeous and satiny medium feel with medium+ acidity and good tannins. Sexy and beautiful tones of dried herbs, roses, spice tones, tar, red cherries, lilacs and loads of dried strawberries as well. Very complex and deep on the palate
overall: what a wonderful wine. This took a bit of time to really come together, but once it did, we were left with a real treat. Supremely balanced with flowing tones on both the nose and palate that add extra layers to the wine
