Community Tasting Note

  August 5, 2007 - This needed some time in the glass to wake up...Garnet, translucent color. Nose shows dark fruit, bark, earth, and smoky meat. On the palate, the smoky meat component is really prominent and the acid is sticking out just a tad, but the wine is generally well balanced. Finishes dry and rather tannic. Needs 2-3 years to resolve the youthful tannins and may drink well for at least five more years beyond that. For the life of me, the 'green streak' or 'it' that others talk about, I just cannot detect. A very focused and elegant wine.
