- Bucko - 07-02-2000 This is the first bottle of this wine that I have opened, usually giving it ample bottle time. That said, I really don't know what to make of this wine. Earthy aromas lead to a host of black fruit flavors, with mushroom/forest floor notes, tannins that have softened to a pleasurable level, and a sense of overall balance, oak not being a prominent player. The wine drank well with dinner, but a small amount left over seemed to have fallen apart a couple of hours later. It seemed to have "the right stuff" upfront, but I'm not sure that I will let this one lay around much longer???? Bucko - Randy Caparoso - 07-08-2000 Had a great dinner with Mark Vlossak, St. Innocent's proprietor/winemaker, last month, Bucko. Brought out PNs going back to '89. Can I get back to you on this? - Bucko - 07-08-2000 I would certainly appreciate it, RC. Bucko |
