- winoweenie - 10-28-2001 Whilst watching the complete domination and dismantling of the renowned Yankee line-up last nite by Curt, I wanted to open something that was as masterful as his pitching. This bottle came close. A powerful, complex,extremely concentrated wine that is shedding it's tannic cloak and rendering the essence of the cabernet grape. Deep ruby, with a sweet floral nose that has tons of blackcurrent-cassis fruit. Silky entry, a very solid center and a tremendously long finish. This is a wine that will go another 15 easily and is showing a racy class that puts it rite there with the big boys. LOVELY. WW |
