- winoweenie - 07-04-2007 Sorry GAD but my Pine Ridge goes only to the 01 so thot I'd do this great long-time bottle from the same vintage. Way to young for me but has all the stuffing to take it another 4-6 to kick the considerable tannins. Medium deep ruby. Reticent nose. Left in the glass for 1&1/2 hours and it reluctantly started giving a glimpse of the future. Spice, red and black cherries, some plumminess and the unmistakable dust. Well made and should take on considerable complexity with some sleep-time. 89/92 24 by the box.13.8% alc. WW |
