Monday, March 1, 2004 - Half bottle at El Gaucho on L's 11th birthday. This was a spontaneous birthday dinner (we thought she would pick MacDonalds), just the 3 of us and me the only wine drinker. But wow, what a treat this CdP was! Big fat jammy fruit and great structured tannins in the finish. Nose was a bit closed, giving up some fruit and pepper, but not a big bouquet. Thoroughly enjoyable though. I was at Freddy's in Totem Lake tonight (3/2) and bought their last two bottles. Yummy.
