Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 90.3 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 8 notes)

 Tasted by mwanasheria on 10/14/2009 & rated 89 points: Excellent. Deep purple colour, long finish. (76 views)
 Tasted by vinole on 7/2/2009 & rated 92 points: Bigger fruit and body than I expected with fairly low acidity. The ripeness gave a long finish that had a hint of sweetness and some sediment. Very enjoyable wine, that tasted like a lush, modern style Brunello with a little extra firmness from the 20% or so cab content. (190 views)
 Tasted by toofine on 3/7/2009 & rated 92 points: (129 views)
 Tasted by mburke on 1/1/2008: Nice wine, ripe fruit somewhat international in style but with some nice complexity and well integrated tannins and acidity. Drinking pretty nicely. (444 views)
 Tasted by Rubinstein on 3/29/2007 & rated 91 points: Very nice but needs a bit more time. (616 views)
 Tasted by Employee500 on 9/6/2006 & rated 84 points: Clearly this was either an off bottle, or in some terrible closed down phase. Awkward with obvious oak and vanilla, but no identifiable fruitiness. Thick and disjointed, something like an Australian Shiraz stripped of its fruit...

Strange and disappointing.... (886 views)

 Tasted by KellyW on 12/3/2004 & rated 90 points: A bit more rustic than previous vintages. Gorgeous nose. Good solid red berry with a finish of black tea. (1313 views)
