Community Tasting Note

Sunday, November 9, 2014 - I like the cool 2011 vintage in CA, at least when it comes to Syrah and Pinot. This has been open for a day, under cork in the refrigerator. The wine still is a little cooler than it should be but there is good acid buffering slightly tart dark fruit, some olive, very light white pepper and maybe a touch of soy. Medium tannin. 14.1% alc. I wish I bought more than one as this pretty good today.
