Community Tasting Note

  • bacchusnyon wrote: 91 points

    July 17, 2011 - Opened three hours before, and decanted one before, drinking. A very good idea. At first blush (on opening, green twigs, and rather acidity. But that dissipated, and the tannins smoothed out, to reveal a nice cherry note (but not a fruit bomb) with still strong acid line and a long, slightly spicy (peppery) finish. A nice bottle, and better than the 97 that we paired with it.
