Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, June 30, 2020 - Drinking beautifully now, but certainly will hold. Decanted 2 hours. At first, closed in with mild, milk chocolate notes. Upon second glass, the complex, earthy/truffle and forest floor aromatics kicked in; along with Cabernet spice (vs tobacco) and some cassis. Some reviewers thought some new world ripeness and perhaps some truth. I thought it was more ripe Merlot influenced. Generous, dark cherry and black berry compote. Some tannins, which worked well with out steaks. The 2006 is excellent at this point and better than the disappointing 2004.
