Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 6, 2002 - Wine tasting. Color close to black, I was afraid this would show like the 1995 just tasted, which thankfully was not the case. Expressive nose of black cherry, ripe plum, cassis, espresso and chocolate. Palate also had the same dense, ripe fruit with really good spice from both fruit and oak, then sensational minerality and textures. Perhaps this wine is still so young and will shut down, or perhaps it had enough decanter time to open up. I don't know, but this was sensational today, with the structure and backbone to continue to be great for decades to come.
