  At charity tasting…Penfold table, wine #5 $690. So coiled up, had to work at this one over 10 minutes swirling often. It was amazing at the end of sips when all the components show briefly tasting remarkable together for 2 seconds…wow, very delicious and complex. See its long future being a 96 and up wine.

  WINE & SPIRITS TOP 100, SAN FRANCISCO (San Francisco, Ca.): Nose of roasted meat, allspice, blue berry, black cherry, baking chocolate, and very floral, same on the palate, big body, very tasty, mouth filling, and
  needs six years to peak, slightly forward fruit, slightly brooding, needs cellar time, and a lovely, long finish, and terrific aftertaste, enjoyed six times tonight!

  Fragrant nose of blueberries, subtle toasty coconut, sweet spices, grilled meat, pepper and dark chocolate. Elegant and sophisticated. The nose needed at least an hour in the decanter to open up. Nice and gentle entry with notes echoing the nose. Good balance between concentration, complexity and elegance. So savoury and delicious. Medium to full-bodied structure with polished edges. Transitions to finish is velvety and long with lingering and savoury aftertaste. Still too young to drink now. Another 5 years of aging will result in greater depth and finesse. 95-97 pts
