92 Points

Saturday, December 19, 2009 - Dinner @ Phil & Ena's (guess the wine) (Richmond, VA): Decanted 2hrs. Served double blind, old world aromas of earth, tar, leather and smoke in the nose. Still old world on the palate with some nice red fruits and cedar undertones. No mint or eucalyptus, that I find in so many Mondavi reserve cabs, however there was a touch of spice on the long finish. Based on this bottle, plenty of room for improvment. I guessed super tuscan due to its old world charm. My 2nd favorite and the groups 2nd favorite. 92+
