Community Tasting Note

Saturday, September 19, 2015 - Last tasted this in 2010 when it was purple, wild and unruly, with a chalky spine that was deserving of it's namesake. It was tough to mentally and sensually connect the two as the same wine. This later version was a dark crimson red with a slight hint of advancement in both color and palate. It hadn't aged nearly as much as a 2006 en Haut sitting next to it, but more than I would have anticipated. Think 2000 Kobe Bryant versus 2010 Kobe Bryant--both great players, the former due to energetic athleticism and the latter due to wisdom and experience (Spurs fans can sub Tim Duncan, except Tim has always been much wiser, even in his youth). I digress, but a second 2007 en Haut drank a few weeks later was more age appropriate and superior. I would recommend to check on your bottles now, but to leave one/some for the future.
