Community Tasting Note

  • paul195 wrote: 93 points

    October 13, 2016 - It has been a while since I last had this vintage, this bottle had an opaque core and deep red color, the nose was quite expressive dominated by black fruits laced with leather, spice and bacon fat. The palate was fuller bodied than I remember, the fruit was a little sour almost like cranberries, smooth tannins, nice body, structure and finish. Still quite youthful with many years to go.
