Deep garnet red. Layered and dark nose with dark spices, cinnamon, spices berries, and black plums. Medium tannins (6/10) and full bodied. Lovely and rich on the palate with coconut, cinnamon, dark berries and light aged characteristics coming through. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2022.

Good not memorable!
Dec 20th, 2017One of the four celebratory wines this weekend for my recent promotion.
Dark garnet red. Tons of cedar on the nose, dark spices, a touch herbal and some blackberries. Heavy tannins (7.5/10) and full bodied. Nice restrained dark berries on the palate with some anise, and dark cocoa. Dark crushed gravel near the finish. Drink till 2025.

Casis, dark berry fruit, tobacco, prevalent lasting but round tannin. Stellar year, stellar producer, stellar wine.

Get as much as you can as soon as you can. Sell your kids if needed.

Second time in a row the ‘07 Maiden has just gone nowhere for me. No punch or lift at all, muddled fruit and lots of heavy tannin.

This bottle and the 3 others I brought to Wisconsin from Chicago all endured a ride in a wine suitcase in the back of a truck in the 15 degree Midwest winter. 3 of the bottles—Voerzio, Beringer and Harlan Maiden—all performed below expectations. The PM Les Pavots, however, was excellent. While I’ve never opened a Voerzio that young I’ve had consistently better experiences with the same vintages of the Beringer reserve and Maiden. I’m wondering if you cold weather dwellers think the cold transport played some role in what happened here.
