Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 13, 2019 - Dinner at Home (Millbrae, CA): Stood 1 month, minimal sediment at the bottom 1 oz. Decanted just prior to tasting. Pale translucent ruby (lighter than a 1975 Cappellano drank with this); high intensity aromatics, fresh roses, bright cherry fruit, slight menthol; palate is light bodied but also with surprising depth of fruit flavor, plenty of red cherries, red fruit, high youthful tannin that gives the midpalate plenty of structure; finish is medium-long and full of juicy fruit. This is going to be a top Cappellano Rupestris.
Day 3: The last 1-2 oz in the bottle: A bit more density on the nose and the palate. This is heading towards the 1975 in style just a bit, though it will take decades to get there. Still perfumed and floral/rose on the nose.
