Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 16, 2012 - What an odd little wine... Big sweet nose of candied dark fruits which follows through on the palate. Prunes, brandied cherries, cooked black-and-blue-berries. Not a description that would normally attach to something I like, but I kind of do: think of the difference between nasty fruit candy and really good fruit confits. No tannin to speak of, but very decent acidity. This is not a ripasso, and it has none of the brooding darkness of Amarone, baby or otherwise. If those are Port-like, think of this as more like a light, lively Ruby. Part of me wants to rate this higher, but then I'd worry about the implicit promise of a seriousness that just isn't there. But it's really easy drinkin'.
