Community Tasting Notes 2

  December 24, 2004 - IECWS bottling.
  Very light ruby with virtually no bricking. Rather evolved nose with more than a hint of VA; light curranty fruit with an odd citrus peel note. The VA comes and goes.
  Very light on the attack with light fresh fruit. Again, quite evolved with a sweet old rioja note. In a more closed glass, it almost seems a touch bretty. Just a touch dried on the finish.
  Very Good.

  October 9, 2003 - Drunk at the off-line at the Ubiquitous Chip on Friday night, before the SuperBOWL 2003
  IECWS bottling. Bought recently at auction, as part of a mixed lot for the average per bottle princely sum of £3.00.
  Sweet, warm christmassy nose with cloves and a slightly medicinal note, with iodine, plastic eraser and plasticine. After all that claptrap, there is still some fruit there, and it's clearly merlot or merlot dominated.
  Very light on the palate. Not at all dead, but mainly secondary flavours. Very interesting, and I have to say very good.
