Community Tasting Note

  • Peliot Likes this wine: 100 points

    February 1, 2018 - This is why wine is so much fun. Nothing I write will capture it, but I have to write something to mark the occasion. 101 Points. Pure magic. We tasted history. The aromas were genie in a bottle stuff: flowers, gravel, fruit, angels, spices, smokes, earth, heaven. Remarkable color for its age - not even a hint of brown. Incredible deep purple color. Velvety. Plenty of acidity, body and structure. Still had power and a smooth even flow of fruit layers on the palate. Long finish and very elegant. A special wine experience. WOTN vs the ‘82 and ‘89, which were also both spectacular.
