Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 17, 2013 - This wine has been open a few day, in fridge, b4 I got to this TN.
Medium straw yellow in color, fading to a pale rim.
Nose is clean, showing off medium intensity, developing aromas of flinty gravel, smoky oak, and fruits including apple and quince.
Palate shows a dry wine, with full body and med+ alcohol, listed at 14.4%. The flavors are med+ in intensity, and include apple, lime and pear, stony minerality, smoke, and ample buttery oak. The finish is 30+ secs, showing off the oak, butter and apple/lime flavors.
This is a complex, layered wine that shows nice pedigree. It comes at a $60 price tag, and is a high quality wine. It is drinking beautifully now, but will continue to improve and drink well over the next 3-5 years or more.
