Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Friday, December 19, 2014 - End of year Friday lunch with Joe and Fern at Htons. unfortunately I had no time to decant this in advance as I was running late. first sip was at cave's temp. 55 F. As expected nose and the first taste was quite closed; it took around two hrs to start opening up and I think it needed more. Great stuff no rush, there are fine unresolved tannins and plenty of fruit to go for another decade.
