Community Tasting Note

• strickt01 wrote: 93 points

  August 9, 2014 - I've seen this wine described by professional reviewers as "classic" and "animal" so I expected a lot of leather, cedar, cigar box and so forth but not a great deal of fruit. Yet whilst my expectations were met on the first count this far exceeded it on the second. Sweet fruit, with blueberries to the fore, wafted enticingly from the glass to the extent that I fully expected it to be an olfactory mirage: that the palate would contain no hint of something so "modern" as luscious ripe fruit. Wrong again. This is an absolutely delicious wine.
