Community Tasting Notes 9

  September 18, 2015 - Garnet colored (on the cola / slightly brown end of the spectrum). Attractive, forward scents of red fruits, spice cake, some herbal notes. Served slightly chilled, the wine seemed balanced on the palate (especially on the second day); at least I got no undue heat or alcoholic warmth, although tannins are fully resolved and acidity is moderate. Flavors of cherries, cola, and spice cake with a rather long finish. I can see that this would not be everyone's cup of tea, but for what it is, I quite enjoyed it (especially on day 2).

  September 23, 2014 - An intriguing wine. Beguiling strawberry and black pepper notes on the nose. Add cranberry and smoke on the palate. However, (intellectually) I agree with previous comments about unbalanced light-weight body/ v alchohol heavy characteristics, but this wine made sense and its flavours lasted through beef bourginogne, cheese etc. Good stuff!

  January 1, 2014 - Big, very fruity on the nose. A lot of brett as well. Long taste but you can feel the alcohol. Not as balanced as I had expected but still a great wine. 3,5+NJP

  December 5, 2013 - disappointed with this. thought the 2008 was great but this was mediocre and for the price poor. not bad perfume on the nose but a bit disjointed on the palate. fades really quickly. bit woody even. not the nice silky finish you hope for from a good pinot.
