Community Tasting Note

Personal Opinion Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 14, 2017 - Popped and poured. Open and ready for enjoyment.. no decant needed.. though it did develop over the first 30 mins open.. and a little more throughout evening. Soft, supple, full mouthfeel, with integrated tannins and balanced acid (except last pour filled with sediment). Concentrated layers of dried, black cherries, dried black fruit, black tea and worn leather overtones dominate, with hints of mint, fine wood spice, savory black olive and graphite. Drinking GREAT!! Paired very, very well with filet and demi-glacé. I doubt there is a need to continue to cellar this for improved development. That said, it probably has a few good years left, if stored properly. Drink now.
