Community Tasting Note

FoodMuse Likes this wine:

Sunday, November 13, 2011 - Opened in 2011, with 8 years of aging behind it, and this was still a blockbuster. Dark purplish-red in coloring, and so thick it almost looks black. Thick on the palate as well. Tannins still quite pronounced. I think this could have cellared another decade with no issue whatsoever. Intense flavors of leather, cassis, dried cherries, blackberries, tobacco, and oak. Nose of marzipan and currant jelly. This is a fairly complex wine from the people who first bottled the varietal.
