Jade Palace Tasted Tuesday, May 3, 2011 by celk with 527 views
Dinner arranged by M. A great evening with lots of interesting wines and fun company!
Velvety feel and blueberries, some rough edges and alcohol heat but overall quite balanced.

Tart fruit and floral with mineral and yeast around the edges. Pretty wine.
Smoked meats, tobacco, mint. Refreshing!
Savory, meaty, sour cherries layered with tobacco and tar. Reminds me of an earthy cigar.
Red fruit, coffee, ash and cedar. Complex and soft tannins, quite gentle.
Layered, fresh finish and good depth; elegant and sophisticated.
