Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Saturday, December 14, 2019 - Drunk over two days over which it improved. It needed a good 2+ hours air to open up. Ruby moving garnet with a clear rim. A musky bouquet of mainly red cherries and some plums, dried herbs, peaty soil and some cigar. In the mouth, a savoury, earthy, dry entry. Cherries, plums and some other dark red fruit, dry underbrush and black tea. There is also a minty green note, which adds interest, as does some attractive tobacco leaf development. Lower, but sufficient, acidity. Tannins now fully resolved. Good length, if finishes bone dry. Great QPR, back in the day. Now in its optimal drinking window, but no hurry needed.
