Community Tasting Note

Goldstone Likes this wine:

Tuesday, December 23, 2014 - Central Otago Visit; 12/20/2014-1/1/2015 (Queenstown and surrounds, Central Otago, New Zealand): Just-transparent black plum colour. Nose is milk coffee and dark red plum, new but unobtrusive oak, nice spiciness. Palate is fresh, vibrant, pronounced cola tingle in the mouthfeel and cherry cola in taste, quite tannic....very tingly and cola-ish...distractingly so. Good resonance and reverberance in the head on the finish. Just needs another year or two for the gawky cola-ness to blow off and for the tannin to integrate. Today it is just too long and even another 24 hours didn't significantly mprove the remaining half of the bottle. I want to like this more.
