Thursday, May 11, 2023 - Color: garnet, with minor bricking on the rim
Nose: perfumed red currant, matured red fruit medley.
Taste: matured red currant and some black currant, leathery goodness from the 13 years in bottle, along with graphite and an undertone of minerality.
Tannins are mellow, yet slightly chalky. Great vibrant acidity still at 13 years young.
Overall, this drinks more like a Bordeaux than a Napa wine, which I very much appreciate. This probably has 5-8 years left in the tank.
