2014 Chateau Ste. Michelle Tempestade Cold Creek Vineyard

Floral on the nose. Bit of violet backed up by charcoal. Started sharp with a monolithic bite but after 30 minutes in the glass it really opened up. Weirdly pleasant almost sour milk note, bitter dark chocolate, medium finish.

Much better than last time. No detailed notes but the wine has left its very awkward stage from my last tasting. Still a slight sharpness to it but the fruit bomb is gone. Good finish.

Stellar. Sorry, drank this several days ago and did not take notes at the time. This is from memory. I do believe it is past peak however still an incredible wine. Smooth, nuanced (flavor, backbone, and yes...there is a hint of vinegar as another reviewer commented, but it is so tiny that it adds to the complexity). Sad this was my last bottle. I would drink now.
