Community Tasting Note

Saturday, September 5, 2015 - 19th anniversary at BHSB (Blue Hill at Stone Barns, Pocantico Hills, NY): Dark, deep saturated red in the glass, with only the slightest hint of garnet at the rim; based on appearance, you'd be hard-pressed to say this was a 19 year old wine. On the nose, leather leads the way, followed by notes of crushed currant, cedar, and a very faint hint of lemongrass. On the palate, a silky texture from start to finish, with currants and cedar at the front of the mix. The fruit is alive and the tannins are modest, making this very approachable now, but there is obviously a lot of room for further development.
