Central New Jersey Off-Line CT tasting at Peking Duckhouse, New York City (Peking Duckhouse, New York City): d.o.a. an anonymous attendee (whose CT user ID starts with an N) brought this bottle to Central Jersey CT off-line dinner and tasting at Peking Duck House. unfortunately it was spoiled. the donor told us that he had enjoyed other bottles in the past. pro reviews indicated maturities extending to 2010. however, a magnum should have lived a little longer. so, something else went wrong with this bottle. Also interesting to note that Carter vineyard supplied grapes to both ken wright and domains serene. The domaine serene showed well tonite.

Although the nose has some lush density, the palate is dominated by green tannins and astringent acid. No real complexity or length on the finish, and the fruit seems to have left the building.

From magnum: No nose and heardly any fruit left. I havre to admit I was surprised, even though it is at the end of the drinking window. Silky smooth no rough edges . Drink up
