Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 23, 2011 - Pride Dinner (Fire Food and Drink, Cleveland Ohio): Very open and accessible. I really was afraid the oak would dominate this, but it seems toned down from the circa 2001 era which I like. Nice cherry and raspberry fruit. Some milk chocolate. While not devoid of oak, it come thru more as vanilla than a 2x4. Very nice balance. I am sure this will age quite well, but it drinks very well right now. Despite the ripe fruit, there is some finesse.
