Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, September 30, 2014 - Born from a suitably mucky bottle, this wine had integrated the tannins and was scoring high notes of dark cherries and violets. The colour was deep in the body and bright on the rim for what is now a well-aged bottle. The bouquet is a heady one. This had colour and flavour and a luscious body and a reasonable finish. Unfortunately, the strength of the flavours on the palate (and the alcohol?) didn't leave a lot of space for secondary flavours of toast or tar that a well aged Malbec grows into. A solid headbanging wine however.

ps Cork disintegrated with a screwpull. I note only because I have seen other reviewers comment on it.
