Community Tasting Note

mgriffith Likes this wine:

Thursday, May 26, 2016 - By the glass selection at Fleming's Steak House.

Definitely needs time to open up. Big wine, strong tannins. Big, slow legs.

Blackberry, leather, pepper nose. Dim room so difficult to accurately gauge the color. Dark purple to inky in this light.

Chocolate, bitter berries (almost like unripe black and/or raspberries).

Mellowed over the course of dinner.

If I had this in the cellar I would give it several years before opening again. Or at least a long decant.
