2000 Red Mountain Reserve

Tasting Notes: (original notes, Pete Hedges): Dense blackberry, cassis and plum and red candy fruit aromas are perfectly balanced by aromas of toasted cinnamon and nutmeg spice, cocoa powder, chocolate and vanilla. Flavors of blackberry, cassis and black cherry fruit combine with hints of cocoa powder and vanilla. Mouthfeel is dense yet bright with fine grained tannins that make the silky finish seem to last forever. 

Updated notes (Sarah Goedhart 8-26-2021): Dark black fruits, cassis, hints of leather, menthol, earth and cinnamon bark. The flavors linger on the palate and include cocoa, blackberry, aged leather, and cedar. The mouthfeel is rich and structured with a good long finish. This wine has aged very well, and it has many years left, a true testament to the Red Mountain AVA!
