Friday, March 20, 2009 - Binny's Spring California Night (Binny's Highland Park, highland park IL): nose: fairly forward nose with good tones of red licorice, red cherries, and some ripe berry tones. Good fruit, but not much depth behind it and not much expression
taste: nice plush feel with good fruited tones of red currants, red cherries and bits of cedar
overall: almost there, but lacks depth to really send it forward. Nice feel and fruit, but there is a lack of tannins and with the forward nature of this, it probably won't improve too much as there isn't the depth there to let it improve
