Community Tasting Note

Monday, September 19, 2005 - I was given this bottle as a gift, I knew it was good/and was of very eccentric mix of vines. So I wanted to try, yet again after countless failures, to see if it could go with Korean Barbecue. I must say that for the first time I(finally?) found a wine which somehow withstood the sauce and the rest of hot/spicy stuff with real dignity. The wine was opened a good 3 hours prior to drinking, and as the time past to reach nearer to the meal time, it was gaining a lot of fat/roundness that certainly did not have when first opened. A great structure(obviously?) a dark cherry flavor with sweet/fine tannin as well as good earth/leather profile. Anybody looking for a wine which would go well with beef Teriyaki or fine chinese dishes with black bean sauce? I strongly recommend this.
