Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 20, 2016 - Afternoon Australian wine tasting.
Decanted for 1 1/2 hours.
The wine is clear with deep purple colour and legs.
On the nose it is clean, pronounced intensity, aroma characteristic of liquorice, dark cocoa, pepper, prune, kirsch, cassis, jaminess, vanilla, and oak.
On the palate it is dry with low acidity, medium tannin, 15% alcohol, full body and pronounced intensity and flavour of plum, spice, pepper, red fruits, vanilla, chocolate, eucalyptus, coffee. Finishes long. Very good wine on this ocassion as compared to tasting it 2 years ago which was outstanding. A little disappointing, fell flat in the end, and lack of fruit structure to hold. Maybe it is just going through a dumb phase. Only the future will tell. Keep first. Or perhaps drink it after decanting for a short while, too much air doesn't do it any good.
