| Community Tasting Notes (average 85 pts. and median of 85 pts. in 2 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by Loren Sonkin on 10/3/2016 & rated 85 points: Ruby with some purple in color. The nose has cherries, saw dust and a bit of leather. Grainy texture. Not a lot of fruit here. Some cherries turning bitter on the finish. OK acidity. Worked a bit better with food, but everyone quickly moved on to other wines. (1668 views) | | Tasted by isaacjamesbaker on 2/14/2016 & rated 85 points: Italian Samples - Value-Priced Wines: Deep ruby color. Less candied on the nose than the regular 2014, this shows deeper plum and black cherry aromas along with earth, violets and coffee. Nicely structured with medium-grain tannins, medium acid, a velvety mouthfeel. Flavors of black cherries and plums, the fruit is juicy and mixed with oak, vanilla, roasted chestnut and loam notes.
