Tuesday, December 27, 2011 - Mystery Wines done Blind, Mini Offline: Bordeaux, Napa, Sonoma, Spain (Luis' Place): Very dark red color with 1-2mm clear meniscus. Splash decant, tasted blind. The nose shows nice fruits, cassis, blackberry, earth, a hint of meat, anise, somes herbs and menthol, touch of carmel emerges later and the meat and anise seems to fade. The palate has good intensity, medium full body, black fruits, herbs, spice, nice acid, fine grained tannins that are still a bit astringent, peppery on finish. A little heat on the finish, long finish. This struck me as about 9-10 years old, and california cab. This has a lot of life left and decanting is still advised.
