WTN: Building pyramids for grain storage

by David M. Bueker » Mon Nov 23, 2015 2:51 pm

2007 SCEA La Tache St. Joseph Cuvée Guillamy - France, Rhône, Northern Rhône, St. Joseph (11/23/2015)
This initially appears to be aging on its acids, with unlit pipe tobacco, cherry fruit, red meat and herbal tones all prominent. It's got more tannin than I initially noticed, and that grows the longer the wine is open. Lighter bodied than most St. Joseph wines I have had recently, it is thus more readily drinkable, and more amenable to being a partner to food rather than dominating the meal. This won't win any points contests, but it will make an engaging partner at the dinner table.
