Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 6, 2013 - Last of my LLC bottles for this vintage. Deep crimson, blackish core, very slight signs of aging. On the nose, slightly austere even after 2 hours in decanter, leather, crushed rocks, cassis and shy hints of flowers. Typical LLC suave attack on the palate, nice mid palate filled with dark red fruits and cassis, slight zest, medium to full bodied, good acidity, slightly mineral, but doesn't have that long finish that I love some much about this wine. Would need to revisit in 5 - 10 years if I replenish my stock.
