Complexity of the kind you do not encounter often: the ability to have old and new notes on the palate at the same time.wineORLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06163150468541915038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1080161909822087430.post-24100702845454489582014-06-21T14:24:17.710-04:002014-06-21T14:24:17.710-04:00Lovely, just lovely.

I am still wondering which Abacus bottling did you taste?<br />I had the pleasure of tasting 4 of them and I bought bottling # XIII, without tasting it. But the best part was that we all had a chance to create our individual unique blend from our Vertical tasting from bottling X, XII, and IVX. We enjoyed bottling XI with lunch as well as the Founder's Reserve Pinot, and the 40 Anniversary 2008 Chardonnay, which has always been my personal favorite ZD wine. I think we had a total of 8 or 9 wines at the June 2012 Abacus Vertical Tasting. It was surely my lucky day.@winegurl4unoreply@blogger.com
