Saturday, July 18, 2015 - Arcadian Retrospective in the O.C. (Casa del Dietz): -- bottle opened at least a few hours before tasting --
-- tasted a single pour non-blind over 10 – 15 minutes --

A bit candied on the Nose --- a "cool," "pure" raspberry licorice aroma. Medium-light bodied. Relaxed and red-fruited on the palate; fantastic acidity. Seeing as how this is already sixteen years old, the question isn't if this wine will live to see its twentieth birthday, but rather if it will see its thirtieth. Fantastic, but I think I have a slight preference – right now – for the 2000 vintage of the same, that I tasted alongside.
