The last time I reviewed this wine was 2011. The wine hasn’t changed much since then, including the price! The 2012 vintage is still a very nice wine as was the 2007 vintage back then.
The mild tannins on the roof of mouth and back of throat are still speaking after all these years giving the wine a mild earthy feel in the mouth. As it was before, the wine is smooth but still with a slight edge to the taste. There’s just a hint of grape if caught at the right temperature. In my opinion, still no forest floor taste as one reviewer noted of the 2007 vintage. For most of us, that’s a good thing. And sticking with my original comment, this is probably a better food wine than a sipper. However when sipped among a group, it’s likely to lead to some interesting conversations.
