Saggi 2006
Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesAn interesting mix of dried herbs, black olive, sausage, black cherry, vanilla, leather and meaty, barnyard, mocha aromas. The entry is rich and warm with more vanilla, coffee, blackberry jam, black cherry, mocha flavours. The finish offers up coffee, cedar, pepper, tobacco and olive flavours. Fine concentration but this is a very warm, heavier, slightly leafier edition than the previous and excellent 2005. Hold for three years or drink now with roasted meats.Tasted: 12 July 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $70.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Mark Anthony Brands |
