At the bottle shop with Becky, chris, patty and me. Nice and smooth! — 3 years ago
Tasting great with some age. Cedar, tobacco, green pepper, plums, chocolate covered tart cherries. More on the herbal/veggie side of Bordeaux blend. I really like this. Probably even better in a few more years. — 3 years ago
Light, smooth finish. Easy to drink. — 3 years ago
Medium Ruby color with aromas of fresh berry fruits, floral and earthy spice notes. On the palate flavors of strawberry and cherry with cigar box, cedar, citrus and earthy herb notes. Well balanced, savory fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with slight earthy notes. Nice value! — a year ago
Tasting good. Nose has some flowers, lemon, hay. Palate I keep coming back to beeswax, brioche, honeysuckle, lemon cream, there’s good acidity from underripe pear. Pretty nice to drink. — 3 years ago
Notes are cumbersome, so no notes today but plus side, scores are honest and I should be a professional reviewer, LOL. (Good, but not 2019 good, detailed notes on future bottles...)
On the Lawn at Tanglewood this final afternoon with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor Michael Tilson Thomas is leading IVES (Psalm 90) and BEETHOVEN (Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Opus 125).
After a two-year pause, we arrive again to the day when Beethoven concludes on these hallowed grounds. The 9th by Beethoven is always bittersweet for us, as it marks the end of the official Symphony and Pops season for the BSO at their Summer home. It is a wonderful and singularly emotive piece moved with the full force of the Tanglewood Festival Chorus (110+) conveying the message of a divine spark of joy that makes all people one. The music and the day almost bring me to tears on an annual basis...
