HOLY &#^%#$%!!!!

The beauty of the nose alone can cause a person to faint (although, to be fair, I do detect a hint of *honeyed* elmer's glue on the nose). I've had sexy wines before, but the nose here is romantic. Asking a girl to smell this wine is like asking her to watch A Room With a View with you. The wine is rich and thick and bursting with more flavor that any wine has a right to. What else can I say? The wine is very dark. Remnds me a bit of a vintage Port. Frankly, this is more complex than most vintage ports I've had. 96? How do you rate something like this? I know it is a 94+...but it might, one day, be a 97 -- hell, it is May 1 and I probably just had the best wine I' going to taste this month. To me this is a 94.5-95 right now. One day, I'm sure this will be a 96(+?) I wouldn't be surprised if, in ten years, I revisited this wine and chose to name it the first 99 point wine ever on my scale.
