Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 9, 2007 - The nose was filled with a judicious amount of sweet oak, vanilla, smoke; fruits that included raspberry and cassis; and hints of grapefruit peel (a very positive character for me when subtle as it was here). While some thought the oak was a little heavy, and the tannins a little much, I thought both were not so out of balance that they weren’t forgivable given the wine’s age and it was still clearly the winner of the night. Additionally I found the mouthfeel to be well structured, concentrated, with a very long finish: a wine that should age well.
