Community Tasting Note

• Enfant sauvage Likes this wine:

  October 7, 2015 - Decided to open this sooner rather than later and for a largish group of philistines based on recent mediocre reviews here. Decanted for 2 hours, and I stuck to my Puffeney and didn't get to this until there was only one small glass left. To my surprise, I found it to be excellent. Sweet/ripe? Yes. But also complex, clean, not overly heavy. Lovely red fruit, a bit of spice and herbs. Overall, a very pleasant wine that I wish I'd drunk more of instead of leaving it to the folks who brought over the Chloe pinot noir... I don't regret the Puffeney for a second, but I was led astray (just a bit) by CT for once. Gah.
