Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes (average 91.3 pts. and median of 90 pts. in 4 notes)

 Tasted by jdunnuck on 2/28/2009 & rated 94 points: Big, dense and tight, this boasts pure, clean notes of dark fruit, spice and integrated oak aromas. While not giving much complexity, the purity and precision is certainly notable and in the mouth, this has rich, sweet fruit, a lush texture, impressive balance and a long finish. I’m a fan and this bottle was drank over two days. (288 views)
 Tasted by goudy on 1/25/2009 & rated 91 points: (164 views)
 Tasted by Haltermr on 11/6/2008 & rated 90 points: Ash, smoke, garigue, violets, blueberries, blackberries and iodine mark the nose. Tart medium weight palate with coarse tannins and long finish.
Tough love at the moment, but will be excellent someday. Hope I'm alive on that day. (180 views)
 Tasted by Haltermr on 7/7/2008 & rated 90 points: Did not take formal notes. Initially primary and grapey, with time opened up to show an complex array of flavors including crushed iron rock, blackberry worceshire sauce, oregon, white pepper. Nice palate with the typical rough aglianico tannic finish. (216 views)
