Sunday, December 27, 2009 - Asher's Birthday Bash - The Big 4-0 (Rothmann's Steakhouse, New York): Man, this wine is just so young right now. It took several hours before it came out from its shell and still this was opened 5-10 years too early. Very restrained and subdued but without a doubt a wine of elegance and refinement with marks of violets, roses, pretty red fruit, tar and a whiff of licorice. The tannins are biting at this stage and need much more time to resolve. A sprinkle of pepper in the background as well. I love the subtlety of this wine, so understated. A great wine in the making.
