Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, June 9, 2009 - This wine shows darker-colored than those that have come before it. Again, we are the happy recipients of beautiful Burgundian aromatics here, as swirling notes of pure cherry compote, dried currants, spiced leather, volcanic rock, tomato leaf, cinnamon red hots and fudge brownie batter compete for one’s attention. It is dark-fruited and dark-toned in the mouth, with earthy savory flavors in a luscious, glycerin-laden package. It is juicy and round with glossy tannins and a hint of sweetness to the black fruit. It feels young and tight, though, and sadly the finish is too clipped and abrupt at this stage for it to really feel complete. It would be best to wait on this one a few more years.
