Community Tasting Note

Thursday, February 20, 2014 - Allowed to breathe in glass 45 minutes before tasting. Clear inky garnet color. Vigorous youthful bouquet of bright red and black fruit, charcoal, bittersweet cocoa. On the palate, tannins and acidity were probably enough to qualify as "searing" in Parker's terminology. Great power, purity and balance in this wine, with no sign of over-ripeness from the hot vintage, but this wine is still too young and needs at least another 5-10 years. My #2, group's #3 tonight.
