Community Tasting Note

timewithwine Likes this wine:

Saturday, October 28, 2023 - The inky, opaque core of almost black but with a sheen that draws in the eye. A mere millimeter thick rim of purple plum and all making for a beautiful wine. As soon as the cork was pulled the area filled with notes of cassis and plum; a most fragrant wine. Cedar, saddle leather, and vanilla all knit the palate in a silky mouthfeel. Fully integrated tannins bound with deft acidity produce a perfectly balanced. It out classed the Ch. Montelena from the same vintage. Both were excellent, but the Cade was unanimously preferred. A shadow of sediment along the side from which the wine was poured and circumnavigating the shoulder. Decanted. 15.2% alc. With grilled (beef) ribeyes from the Meating Place. 10.28.23. Highly Recommended.
