Community Tasting Note

  June 30, 2015 - Medium-medium(+) ruby with garnet tinge, slow moving widely-spaced legs @14.5% abv. Medium aromas of summer cherries, caulked wood, pepper, tar, allspice (?), oak. Dry, medium(+) acidity, medium silky ripe tannin, medium(+) alcohol with occassional residual heat, medium(+) body. Flavors of cherries, red berries, leather notes, sweet spice, mocha, and notes of bitter chocolate. Balanced, elegant yet tannin tend to be firm, like a dominatrix, seducing complexity. Great length satisfying dry finish. Excellent wine, works wonders with risotto, mushrooms.
