Thursday, January 1, 2015 - 2015 New Year's Day Tasting- Double Blind $80+ (Marietta, GA): Dull crimson, aged, no sediment (in my glass at least); caraway, celery seed, leather, sour red fruit, black tea, nutty, brown baking spice, thinner due to age, still good life; intense fruit, medicinal cherry, slight orange peel, nutty, autumnal, great mouthfeel, Rhone-ish with a hint of Bordeaux character; very correct, should have gone to Musar right away; similar aging pattern as Quintarelli too- a long plateau where the wine just doesn't decline, great stuff!
