Community Tasting Note

  • DTown Vino Likes this wine: 94 points

    January 11, 2015 - Decanted 2 hours. Soft, minearals dominate up front, mid palate has the slightest hint of sour cherry and red berries and then finishes long with a slight menthol linger.

    It's young but much more approachable than the 10 was at this time. You definitely can taste the Cab Franc at this point (which I enjoy).

    It's surely tasting Bordeaux like, and I've read others say more right bank. Rest assured, that taste is the cab franc, there is nothing that tastes Merlot like in this blend.

    Will open my next bottle in 2-3 years...
