Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 21, 2013 - Beautiful dark ruby color, but clear, having transparency of Burgundy wines. As suggested by appearance, there is no much body. Flavor is unusual if not strange. There are no berries, fruits or flowers, but complex and rather intensive flavor of mostly grass and leaves, clove comes to mind, and olives. Birthday party did not provide the right environment for the analysis. Acids are plentiful, and there are some tannins and tart creating an illusion of young wine. At the end there is a taste of langenberries and cranberries, especially their tart. There is a feeling that grapes were not ripe enough to reach the potential. Overall, elegant wine, resembling Burgundy wines more than Rhône wines. Interesting, but, IMHO, overpriced.
