Community Tasting Notes 2

    September 20, 2019 - Given plenty of time to breathe and open up. The wine at this point is extremely young and tight.
    Clear, brilliant and ruby in color.
    The nose offers up scents of brambly raspberry, cranberry and whiffs of blue fruits that weave in and out of the earth, rock and mineral tones that incorporate light touches of rose and tea.
    The palate is wound tight and shows plenty of tension. High toned acidity and tannins that are tightly wound in this stage of the wines youth. Flavors emerge showing some rocky-minerality to the bright red berry fruits, blueberry and rose hip notes. The finish is taut.
    Overall a young wine that needs another 7 or 8 years.

    March 13, 2018 - SIA Wine Week; 3/12/2018-3/16/2018 (Singapore Airlines): pale ruby; acidic, tannic, with alcohol burn, yet rather flat and uninspiring; mainly raspberry, pepper and tea; perhaps need some years but can’t see it go far even with age
