Community Tasting Note

Mrbuzz Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 12, 2019 - Last had this 7yrs ago...pristine bottles acquired from the late Barney Rhodes(owner of Bella's oaks vineyard) cellar sale back then. This bottle was in the same vein as before...aging at a glacial pace! SO youthful and dark fruited...smooth as silk, yet still a firm spine of dusty dry tannins. Plum liqueur, dried blackberries, cacao, licorice...dusty old cellar dryness...aged leather, olive, mushroom, dried tobacco leaf. The complexities have to really be searched for though, as this is still quite monolithic in nature. Not going to get any more expressive from here...but probably not going to die out either.
