Community Tasting Note

Sunday, October 5, 2014 - Not liking this as much as I did the first bottle a year ago.

Decanted for an hour. Dark purple and limited clarity. Big nose of black fruits, spice and grainy leather.

Medium to heavy body and big fruit and leather on the palate. This was too much of a fruit bomb for me and I found it distracting.

Good tannin structure so this has the bones to go for a while longer but I am not convinced that age will lessen the fruit forward explosion on this wine.

I do have 1 more bottle so we will see if my prediction pans out. But if I am wrong I still win... no wonder I love wine so much.
