2004 St. Clement Oroppas - winoweenie - 11-07-2012
Neat juice. Almost DOTOIG. Lovely aromatics, solid entry and a 4 lapper finish. A little heat in the middle due to the 15.6% alc but not too intrusive. Will need another 1-3 but very nice drinking now. WW

WW, I've never even seen this one. Is it a specific bottling? Top bottling? Sounds good!

This is the top of the St. line that is a meritage that changes make-up yearly. If you look at the name bakwards you see Sapporo the Japanese Bev giant that bought the good Dr. out way back when.WW (the dirty rackle-fracs went in and raised my and a friends bid of 1.5(?) mill 3 days before closing to 9 mil.
Wrote extensively on the board at the time. Mite have even used a cuss-word for the 1st time on one of me posts)
