Community Tasting Note

• rmcnees wrote: 92 points

  September 9, 2018 - Tasted from the wine list at Harry and Izzy's Indy.
  
  This was was opaque garnet-crimson colored, medium full bodied with black berry and black currant fruits accented by creme de cassis, leather and tobacco with notes of lavender, cedar and cacao with lingering structured but smooth tannins.
  
  This showed some bright acidity and tartness begging for more age and time to settle and integrate, this will probably improve for five to ten years and be at its apex for another ten years or more.

  9/12/18, 9:53 AM - I was very pleased to find your review of the Pilcrow here and on your blog. I recently ordered a few bottles of the 2015, and am looking forward to trying them. Reviews and tasting notes for these wines are few-and-far-between!
  
  For what it is worth, when I ordered the 2015 I asked the wine maker, Sara Beer, about the drinking window. This was her response: "We recommend 5-7 years as a good window, and likely longer, if you are a fan of aged Cabernet."
