Community Tasting Notes 8

  January 23, 2021 - Nose not real strong. Flavor is not as sharp as I expected. Good fruit maybe almost to much, and rather light. The grape (cannonau) is uncommon around here and not a flavor much to my liking. Tannins a bit strong but not as much as it expected from other comments. We decanted 1.5 hrs early and that may have contributed to it's smoothness

  February 2, 2018 - Taunt and tannic.....but not without it's charm. Hold or consume with red sauce.

  October 21, 2017 - 10/21/2017 SPC Class WK7: Italy // Southern: opaque garnet color. Moderate aroma intensity showing some age. Blackberry, black pepper. Dry, medium bodied lively acidity and medium/astringent tannins. Moderate flavor intensity: pruney and jammy. Long finish. Nicely balanced - went well with asiago and pesto.

  May 6, 2017 - Vinturied. Cherry, plum, licorice and cloves on the nose and palate. Finishes with firm tannins and good length. Wish I had given this bottle more air; tannins were very dominant. Medium to full bodied. Served with baked lasagna.

  April 11, 2017 - This has aromas of chalk, blue fruits, heather and mint. Its medium bodied linear and tasty sensuous palate has lip smacking acidity. Ends longish, fresh and medium tannic. A good food wine. Served with Spaghetti Bolognese.
