Community Tasting Note

  November 6, 2010 - When first decanted, it was pure bacon fat on the nose. After a couple of hours in the decanter, it was splashed back into the bottle, taken to dinner, and back into a decanter. Nose was gorgeous. A great crushed pepper, mocha, leather, and raw meat nose. Absolutely beautiful. There was a touch of blackberry and maybe some fig, but the others were the primary characteristics. The mouth was still tight and tannic, but the tannins are silky smooth. The fruit is present and lush. This wine will be an absolute rockstar in 3 - 5 years. Fantastic wine. Towards the end of the night (about 5 hours of being open), the nose was almost pure mocha / espresso. Gorgeous.
