Community Tasting Note

• Mr.Overhill wrote: 98 points

  October 1, 2013 - Amazingly plush and beguiling in its rich depths. Everything a winner from this vintage should be - on the fuller side of black fruit, yet not overpowering, soft supple tannins and wonderful balance on the mid palate. The garringue is playing peek a boo and the blackberries are dancing all over, but neither one overpowers. I think that WS underrated this one with their 95 point review. Hope it only gets better.

Glad to see the community scores and comments are living up to the professional reviewer's scores, Parker's 99 point score comes to mind. I only have two for this vintage and hopefully won't touch them for at least three more years.

  Glad that you have some in your cellar - I wish I had room for more CdPs from this vintage - but I'll need to drink up my older vintages first!
