Community Tasting Note

Monday, March 27, 2017 - Fabulous dark crushed syrah fruit nose, with roasted mushrooms, truffle, earthy and floral; richer and slightly rounder than the 2001 and 2000 along side, with excellent acidity, nice earthy/rocky/meaty/leather complexity, long finish. So young, but fabulous interest and complexity already, boding for an outstanding future.

This was a surprising bottle, given some earlier tastings of the 04, which suggested it was a somewhat lighter, earlier drinking vintage. Based on this one, I'll hold my remaining bottles for the long term.
