Community Tasting Note

Bobhoggs Likes this wine:

Saturday, April 27, 2024 - clear, ruby with hints of brick throughout, even after 12 years. Still red and black fruits dominance to the nose, with hints of violet and some ripe berries coming up. Muted herbs. Cedar and tobacco, some sweet liquorice, but not very persistent. Medium acidity - high tannins, but from fruit and no trace of vinification tannins. pleasant linear texture with medium/long finish.
Took some time (2-3 hours) to come out. Imagine it can still lie until 2028-2030.
Classic pairing with fried red meats, fatty sides.

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like strawberry, blackberry, black currant (cassis), strawberry jam, forest floor, cedar, light toast, violet and tobacco. It tastes like strawberry, blackberry, strawberry jam and tobacco. The body is medium/full. The wine has linear texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.
