Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, August 25, 2021 - Drinking well.
PnP, no decant. Took 1/2hr or so to open up a bit. In the nose, dried red and black fruits in the nose, with some cedar and leathery notes, very inviting and pretty. In the mouth, the wine is almost saline, a bit of tart fruit acid up front, no noticeable alcohol as well. Med-full, round and supple flavors of black fruit, old wood, leather, and used coffee grounds.
Overall. Well made, mature/slightly over the hill- I bet some are showing better than others. Drink up either way.
