Community Tasting Note

wenderoth Likes this wine:

Saturday, March 22, 2014 - Opened for my stepfather's 75th birthday. Capsule and cork in great shape - last 10mm of cork wet, the rest like the day it was bottled. Wine level well into neck. Double decanted and allowed to come to room temperature over 2 hours. Wine a dark, plush garnet, immensely clear and vibrant. Nose a little funky at first, but resolved into a mixture of primary and secondary notes, oscillating between savoury Provençal/smoky/meaty overtones and almost jammy black fruit aromas. Palate reflected this - lovely juicy plum and blackberry up front giving way to savoury charcuterie and leather on the finish, which was long, long, long. A delightful wine and a pleasure to drink.
