Community Tasting Note

  September 5, 2017 - What's not to like?! My husband said this was absolutely the best wine he's ever put in his mouth. We paired it with a red-wine glazed lamb chop, rosemary zucchini, and mashed potatoes. For a 2008, we were surprised that the color was still a beautiful ruby. The nose was a rich Carmel Valley memory. I got some chocolate and almond, maybe some hazelnut, and I wish I could identify all the succulent aromas, but I'm not very good at that. The wine is not tannic, but there's a little pepper when you swirl it in your mouth. Again, I wish I could identify everything in the mouthfeel. This is not a very educated review, but this is one excellent wine!
