- winoweenie - 05-29-2005 Forgot to post on this when I opened the 1st bottle. Medium deep ruby. Nose of red and black fruits. On 1st sip and impression of sweetness because, I think, of the intensity of fruit. After an hour the terrior came thru and plummy, strawberry notes hit the palate. As usual the weighty center and a 4-lapper finish. Neat stuff. 91/9045 on futures.14.1% alc. WW - winoweenie - 12-12-2005 Haad another for lunch today. Seems fleshier and the nose is becoming more dominant. Not quite enough to change scoring. WW - Kcwhippet - 12-12-2005 I've found the Loring's are good for 3 years - 4 or 5 if you have really good storage as you do, ww. Love those wines. Too bad Bucko hasn't found them to his liking. - winoweenie - 12-13-2005 Bucko Who? ww [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img] - winoweenie - 04-06-2006 Opened another for lunch today. Evolving swimmingly. Nose showing more varietal intensity along with some overlays of earthy notes. Mouthfeel is also ratched up a notch. IMHO it still has a way to go to get on top of its' game. Maybe another year. Still a kick-patootie drink. WW - winoweenie - 11-06-2006 Had this for lunch yesterday. Regressed back to double intake as I was feeling frisky. This is a killer bottling. Not much new to say except I'm getting low on these 02s. WW - winoweenie - 08-27-2008 Said goodbye yesterday to this last bottle of this super juice. The nose has become more dominate and at firsy gave just a hint of good funk. Blew off in about 5 and drank swimmingly till the very end. Lovely stuff. No need to change the scoring as it be all gone. WW - Drew - 08-27-2008 I'm sure you'll find one several years from now hiding in the back of the cellar..... Drew |
