Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Tuesday, July 8, 2008 - Enjoyed at dinner with friends, from the cellar of gk. Decanted for about an hour before serving. Gorgeous nose full of dark fruits with a strong background of earth and smoke. Wonderful balance on the palate with a nice complexity of flavors, young tannins and a super long finish. The fruit was not thin, but it was lacking a little punch on the palate that would have really put this wine over the top for me. Still has the structure to age gracefully for another 5 to 10 years.
