Community Tasting Note

• Purple Tooth wrote: 95 points

  December 1, 2023 - A love/hate wine. This note is not a note about my stylistic ideology of wine, its about the wine's quality and correctness for its place and pedigree. So if you opened this, and you bought a CdP in a lucid state of mind, then dont bitch about the massive wine with over the shoulder bolder holders. For those who came for this, you are definitely getting more than what you paid for. Big, voluptuous, rich, dazzling in bright raspberry compote, coupled with spot on acidity. Long, bruising finish that makes you take sip after sip until you finally get tired. The length of time it takes for palate fatigue depends on your tolerance for beautifully crafted jammy wine that holds its weight and tag along alcohol quite well under its sleeve or skirt, depending on your preference and imagination. One to get, one to drink. For me, I call this one,"Lady Ready"
  Drink!

A powerhouse CdP with a long, deep finish is one of the handful of things that proves there is a god somewhere that loves us. Thanks for this note, PTooth. Gonna probably read it about eighteen more times.

  Through the hall and out the door
  To the fountain of perpetual mirth
  Let it roll for all it's worth
  Find me where ye echo lays
  Lose ye bodies in the maze
  See the Lord and all the mouths he feeds
  Let it roll among the weeds
  Let it roll
  Let it roll down through the caves
  Ye long walks of Coole and Shades
  Through ye woode, here may ye rest awhile
  Handkerchiefs to match your tie
  Let it roll
  Let it roll, let it roll
  Let it roll, let it roll
