Community Tasting Note

Tyler_at_WWD Likes this wine:

Monday, February 28, 2011 - Tender, plumy tones dominate the aroma, with blackberry and blackcurrant showing as well. Faint floral tones, a hint of pencil shavings, and a mix of forest floor and fallen leaves combine with a spin in the glass.

Ripe and plush, with a red currant and cherry tone, the palate starts off bright and intriguing. Violets and dark chocolate blend with wild honey and tones of dried blueberries and butter toffee. This is an impressive wine, with an interesting amount of complexity, and a fascinating depth. Well integrated, with nicely balanced delicate tannins, this is a wine worth trying.
