Community Tasting Note

Monday, June 22, 2015 - 89-90

refined and structured. Has enough fruit to match the old world character.

nose of leafy dark cherry, cola, pipe tobacco, varnished wood and green herbs.

almost full bodied, strong acid on opening, and serious dusty tannins with solid grip on the finish.

palate of, tart blackerry and cherry, french oak, sarsaparilla, tar, and bitter chocolate. terracotta minerality.

shows my favorite qualities of sangiovese with added body and structure from the bordeaux varietals.

still very tannic and definitely built to last. i see room for improvement in the cellar.
