Community Tasting Notes 4

  • stayhappy21 wrote: 88 points

    December 24, 2015 - Drank a bottle during the Christmas party at my brother-in'law's place today.

    Brickish red with dark brown hues. Notes of aged oak, dark cherries, black coffee and dark chocolates.

    Gentle on the palate with a soft and mellow finish. Some residue sugar to compliment the tinge of black pepper spice.

    Towards the end of its drinking window, this wine nevertheless presents a good QPR.

    June 4, 2015 - Dark red with Crimson hue. It has aromas of black berry, dark chocolate and hints of toasty oak.
    Soft and mellow on palate, still has nice fruits, black berry, blue berry and some chocolate. End with spicy finish.
    A simple and forward wine. To be drunk soon.

    March 18, 2013 - Opulent black fruit, lots of spice and some confection. Seemed unbalanced this time. Acid was in your face and distracting. Must've been a monster in its youth.

    December 24, 2012 - At this point, still fairly vibrant and youthful. Tannin structure is still intact, but softening. Leather, smoke, haw flakes, stewed plums, sweet tomatoes and herbs.
