Community Tasting Note

Sunday, July 22, 2012 - Group tasting notes with beer-geek kids and wife for a birthday dinner. Beautiful translucent dark ruby purple color; seriously aromatic, with jammy black cherries and blackberries, some earthy funk, chocolate truffles, peppery carnations and a tarry vaseline note; good acidity, with the aromatics carrying through into the flavors, along with a serious dose of fig reduction; bone dry, with crunchy but well-integrated tannins, and a very, very long intense finish. The kids aren't red wine fans, but they were blown away by this. I'm not the biggest bordeaux fan, but this was seriously enjoyable. A great wine for review no. 500.
