Community Tasting Note

  • changovin Likes this wine: 90 points

    March 22, 2014 - decanted 3 hours before drinking (largely based on previous tasting notes, thanks). that was a good call, the acidity calmed and the flavors developed.

    this bottle has great flavors (red/black fruit with mineral spirits) and warmth (dried wood) and definitely the elegance of a good burgundy. my only complaint is that the mouth feel was totally lacking, it was really watery which made it difficult to savor the great flavors.

    hard to say if it's really past peak. I'm sure it will be tasty and drinkable for at least a few more years, but I would suggest drinking within a year (mid 2015).
