Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Saturday, June 2, 2012 - Drank at dinner with Heinz and the gang. Although the bottle still had a very high level the cork was fully soaked. Very dark red colour; almost opaque; no hint of brick. The nose was intense and forward dark red fruit, black cherry but not as fresh as I expected. Mineral notes and herbs. The palate is as intense as the colour suggests, maybe even more, low acidity, balanced and tannins are ripe and in balance. Overall I think this bottle did not do the wine justice, but still very enjoyable.
