Red Blend

January 9, 2015 - Decanted for about 40 mins, lots of sediment. This needed the air time, on pouring it was quite closed and tight. After 40 mins there are beautiful notes of lilac and dried fig, with only a slight hint of barnyard. The palate is scrumptious, gritty tannins, excellent red fruits, cherry, and a delicious finish. This got even better with more air and a dinner of asparagus risotto and lamb ribs, truly a great wine. Serge Hochar has created a wonderful elixir, a toast to his memory!
