Community Tasting Note

  March 6, 2011 - Decanted for about an hour. Deep ruby color with very light color at the edge. Blackberries, cedar, dried herbs, black cherries, eucalyptus, and a bit of licorice on the nose. Medium body with soft, ripe tannins and very nice acidity. Nice and refined on the palate, not a fruit bomb. Very food friendly. On the finish the fruit turns more towards cherry and raspberry. Not as much oak on the palate as the nose would lead you to believe but a bit does pop out on the finish. I think this is as good as it gets, drink over the next couple of years.
