Community Tasting Note

Friday, June 29, 2012 - Mature garnet center with an orange/pink rim. You can almost smell the sun radiating off the large stones of the vineyard. This is complemented by roasted herbs and very ripe fruit. Silky mouthfeel - certainly a hot vintage wine. To be honest, I think this bottle is overdone - something I rarely encounter with VT. But there are certainly prunes on the palate. There is some acid but not enough to counter the hot flavor profile. One of the worst bottles of VT I have had. Fans of big, ripe CDP will like this a lot more. (78)
