Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Saturday, June 3, 2006 - Not sure what RP and ST were tasting here, but this is a better wine than sub 90. The 02 was a puppy dog, wagging its tail and licking your face with its fruit and bravado. This 03 is a more serious wine; however, after 4 hours of air, it was open for business (didn't have a chance to taste it any earlier.) Good dark fruit, yet a very well structed wine. Tannic right now? Yes. But I believe these will resolve over time and the wine has what it takes to age wel and improve. These guys do a great job.
