Nose is very distinctive but pleasant (exactly as I remember it from Friday). We do not equate this nose with protein specifically spoiled milk. Lady-C thought it was a very ripe black cherry. Palate continues with the same theme of very ripe black cherry laced with caramel, chocolate and vanilla leading to firm tannin. We then moved on and tasted this with food. We had a hanger stake with shallot, red wine vinegar and port wine reduction, oven fried potato and spring asparagus. Despite assertive nose and palate this wine has, it went very well with food as well. So, our conclusions is that it certainly deserves score of 4. Winepath also left a comment on the Friday tasting post stating score=4 is appropriate. Please give us any comments you may have.
