Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 17, 2021 - 2004 low/mid range Piedmont is like the avocado of the wine world - not ready, not ready, not ready, not ready…NOW!!! Well, this particular wine was ready, though perhaps slightly on the end of its secondary phase, starting to gain tertiary notes. The hue scared me a bit, as it is quite bricked overall, but it is quite lovely. Still some of that amazing 2004 floral and tar component on the nose, the palate is very dusty, but still has an energetic mouthfeel with good acidity. The fruit is where it shows its secondary/early tertiary characteristics, however, in starting to dry out and perhaps prune a bit. Wonderful with rich foods, I’d consume these in the near future. I have wanted to check in on my 2004s and this one definitely is ready.
