2008 Checkerboard Vineyards Kings Row

Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 10, 2013 - Garnet color as I decanted, would have pegged as older than a 2008. Tasted over about an hour. Chocolate and some tea notes on the nose, a little disjointed. Palate is red fruit with a touch of porty-ness, again a little disjointed. Medium weight. I really like Checkerboard, this is just okay as a second bottling. (This was allocation direct from winery and I don't believe a flawed bottle.)
