Community Tasting Note

Bam_Man Likes this wine:

Wednesday, May 20, 2015 - First bottle since February, 2013. Still a very youthful-looking, dark, semi-opaque magenta in color, with almost no lightening at the edge. Maybe a little less expressive on the nose this time. Attractive, though very subtle scents of crushed berries, vanilla and earth. Full-bodied and noticeably less fruit-forward than last time, though still very New World in style for a St. Estephe. There's still plenty of luscious, ripe blueberry and boysenberry fruit character to this though. It's definitely more harmonious now - showing a lot less oak, and the tannins are becoming well-integrated. Beautiful, delicious and freakishly good for a Bordeaux at this price point.
50+5+12+17+8=92
