Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 28, 2016 - This is my last 750 of 07 EH. I've been tracking my own notes and those of others and so my hunch was it's time to wave it goodbye. Just opened, an immediate impression. Starting to show some secondary impressions, of light browning around the edge of the glass, as well as some earthier tones in the palate. The acidity on this bottle, at least right now, seems better than the very recent bottles, coming off with some energy and tartness. At about 68f too, I don't sense any of the over-ripe tones that I and others have commented on with past bottles. Actually, this is drinking pretty studly for the moment and I'm adding a chill and then taking to a mid-afternoon BBQ when I will taste again and circle back to add some final impressions for a wine that has always been close to my wine drinking heart......we finished this with dinner. It actually held up pretty well. I do suggest a little bit more of a chill on this to help reign in whatever vintage ripeness you might want to dial back or tamp down. It continues to drink well but I remain of the view that it won't age much longer.
