Community Tasting Notes 7

  October 3, 2011 - Even, very deep ruby colour. Very attractive nose, feeling gently mature. Rich, dark plummy fruit with a hint of chocolate and sweet blackberries. Very rounded and integrated palate. This is in a very good place just now: shame it's my last bottle. Rich, deep dark fruit and bitter chocolate flavours with something of a leathery texture. Big, but not bruising.

  A just-matured ruby colour. Rather interesting nose: rich black plums and a bi of crème de mûre, with a savoury umami edge. Very nice palate: it's feeling nicely evolved, but still has good, sweet fruit. Very rounded with a chocolate-prune feel on the finish. Nicely integrated and working very well now.

  The nose is very, very obviously chocolate coated kirsch soaked cherries. Maybe there’s a bit of cinnamon or mulling spices too. Smooth, richly textured attack. This is pretty powerful stuff, and feels much bigger than its 13.5% abv. Very meaty with a somewhat grainy texture. It has an attractive sour edge on the finish which contrasts well with the sweet fruit. It was still drinking well five days later. Very Good Indeed.

  December 31, 2005 - Big, black-fruits nose with green hedgerow notes. Very open on the palate with soft grainy tannins evident from the start. Quite green flavours. Very good length. Very Good.
