This
nearly 10-year-old jewel is maturing quite nicely. The cork is well intact, minimal color
fading, and still holds some good rich fruit flavors. Aromas of raspberries
will be the first to greet you followed by blackberries and cherries. After taking that first sip or two, you may
notice those earthy undertones and a touch of tobacco for this medium bodied
beast. There are some dark fruit flavors in that final finish along with a
touch of pepper. You can keep this wine in the cellar and sample again in a
couple of years to gauge if it has peaked yet. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
