Community Tasting Note

• dsgris Likes this wine: 89 points

  January 26, 2013 - inky opaque purple/red, ripe Bing cherries on the nose. Dry tart fruit, noticeable alcohol, bold fruit and body. Needs a little further cellar time to settle down, not harsh, just lacking in balance and smoothness, tannins need to mellow a bit. It should come good with more time, I will give my other bottles a couple more years. I just wanted to try this one with a thick steak, 87 on the PnP. Very nice the next night, well balanced with some initial tart fruit and mellow tannins. Medium body, tart cherries, stone fruits and chewy tannins on the finish.
