Community Tasting Note

Saturday, June 18, 2016 - I'm not going into the the discussion of what it should be....new world/old world...this was fantastic. Vivid raspberry, cherry and leather on the nose with a gorgeous toast...really nicely integrated oak. Perfectly ripe tannin coupled with med-plus acidity just kept it going. It got better in the three hours open but I wouldn't say by much. Just lovely, nose matched the palate. This went perfectly with Icelandic lamb and candied sweet potato. i'll contradict my opening statement and say it leans in the 'new world' direction but it was just delicious. I would imagine another great 10 plus years. For the price this has always been a fantastic deal, a true Gran Reserva and I'm extremely excited for the 2010. 94+
