Community Tasting Notes 12

  April 16, 2013 - My last bottle and drinking very nicely, though I don't see it getting any better. It comes across mature with a burnished, smoky patina to the ripe citrus and peachy fruit, moderate sweetness balanced by vibrant acids beneath, and it's excellent; refreshing and lovely with slightly spicy food.

  January 20, 2013 - Just like the bottle I enjoyed in December. Drinking very nicely now, though I see no reason to hold this longer.

  December 1, 2012 - Comes across a lot more mature than the bottle I had last year; the fruit here has a more savoury, burnished quality to it, framed by developed smoky and creamy flavours. The sweetness isn't as pronounced either, it comes across almost dry with the bright acidity cutting through whatever sweetness there is and is drinking beautifully now (though I won't hold my other bottles too much longer).

  June 30, 2011 - TTTG (no notes, just rankings): My wine of the night (1/9) and much more balanced and complex than either the 04 or the 09.
