Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 31, 2010 - Saturday Tasting Group (Knightsbridge Wine Shop (Northbrook, IL)): Lovely cloudy medium deep purple color in the glass.
Nose of anise, green vegetation (peppers), wet moss, pure ocean breeze and fresh strawberry.
Fresh linen and leather lend a nice backbone within the aroma of the wine - well structured.
The palate is still really really young and agree with Phil, very forward in its approach of fruit - though it's still showing well.
Nice acidity and a really appealing and sexy tannin structure. There's a touch of oak as well but it's elegant and classically toned.
A cool bottling - though from a vineyard "the size of Montana."
