Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 26, 2014 - Bottle was leaking from under foil and dripping on other bottles. Opened and cork had no wine around edges...it was leaking through the cork itself, a first for me. Poured to examine and wine was garnet and clear. No sign or taste of oxidation. Still has very present but soft tannins and nice acidity. Get some black cherry, blackberry and spice. Nice long finish. Forced to drink early in the afternoon....some days are just good days.

We (AndersN, lisaS, Castello, Cellarrat 5, NWIDan, Dominus etc.) talk about the wines we're drinking and make fun of each other (except me because I have been dubbed King and I can't let them foment revolution ;-) Look us over and if you'd like to join just put a request in. Cheers!
