Tuesday, March 10, 2009 - Martine's Wines Portfolio tasting (MK, Chicago IL): nose: good, classic gevrey nose of earthen tones, wood spices, dark red cherries, and raspberries. Good robustness to it, but with a lighter touch at this time and good purity
taste: excellent and more round feel with well balanced tones of strawberries, earthen tones, dark red cherries and raspberries. Good medium/high acidity that is definitely present, but doesn't get in the way
overall: an outstanding wine. Lovely with classic aromatics that really draw you in. Pure Gevrey expression that is very alluring
