Community Tasting Note

• JLL wrote: 91 points

  June 4, 2009 - Far better showing than 16 months ago, although time is still needed here. Decanted in a R Magnum for 90 minutes and enjoyed over 4 hours. Dark purple color with slight clear bricking above. Big oak/cocoa/heat on the nose. On the entry, strawberry/blueberry/leather/earth/heat/chocolate. The finish was very tannic with the extremes of the entry magnified, especially the strawberry, leather and heat.
  
  That being said, there is hope here. 16 months has done wonders, I can only imagine what another 2+ will do to improve this wine. 3 more left, and my new target date for my next experiment is June 2011.
