Sunday, November 3, 2013 - Second bottle. Knowing nc wino, phredd and wineknurd and there respected palates I still don't feel the massive scores for this. I dig this wine, it's quality qpr central, but it's not 95, 97 or 99. Great cherry, cedar but it lacks that haunting element that makes outstanding wine legendary. That's what you are doing hanging a 97 or 99, you are calling something a legend. This is not a legend.

I would very much enjoy tasting this wine from the same bottle in the same room with you, just to be sure that our differing impressions actually come from the exact same wine and are not due to differing circumstances/conditions. The bottle I had really did have that haunting, mysterious, legendary quality to it, for me.
