Community Tasting Note

Thursday, July 8, 2010 - Absolutely no hint of fading in the color - in fact as sits in the glass it looks like an '07 Napa Cabernet. The nose is expressive though with ever-changing smells of lavender, cassis, smoke, sweet tobacco and eucalyptus. On the palate, this bottle at least, remains impenetrable with a backbone of steel and clamped shut tannins. But the tannins are ripe and I can sense the balance and power that I think will still make this one of the longest-lived and greatest Bordeaux's produced in recent times. Open again when I have my first great-grandchild! 96+
