Community Tasting Note

  September 2, 2012 - Well this was just remarkable. One of my favorite wine drinking experiences. Slow decanted, and drank this bottle over 5 hours. The nose was rich and balanced. After 31 years we were amazed that there was still fruit, followed by delicious secondary flavors that you would expect from a wine of this age. It was fantastic. Initial tasty fruit was followed by earthy flavors; dirt, moss, mushroom, leather, muddy creek bed. The finish was mild, long, and perfectly balanced. A fully integrated and balanced wine, pleasant start to finish. Really a total delight.
  
  This is the outcome that all wine makers are going for when they take all those labored steps to make their wine...and what we all want to happen when we write "Im going to lay this one down for 5 more years.”
