Community Tasting Note

  • For the Love of Wine Likes this wine: 93 points

    November 22, 2018 - Part of a mini Futo flight (06, 07 and 09....07 and 09 had a 2 hour decant, 06 had a 1 hour decant....all wines were slow oxidized [cork removed] for an additional 2 hours). Initially, this wine showed the best out of the gate, but was eventually overcome by the 07, at least for me. This wine had tones of black and blue fruit, a nice nose and was inky purple/black. A hedonistic wine for sure. It had a nice finish and everything was integrated and balanced. While, for me, it did not end up showing as well as the 07, it still maintained its elegance throughout the night. Overall, a very nice wine, but as several others noted, not a great QPR.
