9/30/2016 - ibglowin Likes this wine: 90 pointsFantastic bouquet that you want to dive into. Needs about 30 mins to begin to open. Its a little funky on first impression almost like it came from the rocks AVA and not Red Mountain. I get some tar, leather, pepper, plums. The finish is long with nice acidity. Tannins are now smooth and well integrated. Its hot at 15%ABV so keeping it cool is a must or the alcohol takes over. 2011 seems even more crazy since we have now had 5 years straight of record warmth and GDD since then. This wine truly captures the tough year that it was to grow fruit. |

9/23/2015 - Sanfoan Likes this wine: NRThere are hints of dark chocolate and coffee on the nose. I also get some smokiness from this wine. There are hints of savory herbs (think maybe some mint). Personally, I find this wine quite heavy. It gives a warm feeling while drinking it. This I have found is a characteristic of Gorman Winery wines. In terms of fruits, there are definitely some darker fruits (maybe stewed here) such as dark cherries and maybe some figs. Overall, this is a well-made wine. Just not my cup of tea. |
