94 Points

Thursday, November 23, 2023 - Thanksgiving wine treat. I’ll start off by saying it was a little bit of fallen expectations because I was so looking forward to tasting this wine, but it was still pretty strong on a few points. Color was a medium garnet showing a brick edge and I would’ve guessed more like late 1990s just by color. Highly perfumed aromas of middle eastern spices, rose bouquet, and crushed stones. The bouquet was beautiful although more savory (i opened it two hours before drinking, no decant). Silky smooth and full palate with bing cherry and sweet plum. Texture was very silky and it all kept improving in the glass. Lengthy finish. All in all a great DRC experience but less than I was hoping for a 2010 LT. Highly recommended.
