Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 21, 2007 - Dinner with Craig, Chris, and Steve (Chez Moi): Dark red/black color. The nose is a stern and brooding blend of dark fruit, ceder, and an undelineated smoke/tobacco/earth. Primordial, but promising. The main thing you notice while tasting is the structure. This is extremly concentrated but compact on the palate. The taste is mainly blue/black fruit with a ton of minerality. The finish is tannic, concentrated, and lingering. Too bad the 1982 was corked, as it would have been very enlightening to try these side-by-side. I gave this 95 points, but I suspect it has the potential to exceed this given enough time. Buy up.
