Community Tasting Note

wombat Likes this wine:

Friday, August 28, 2015 - Bouquet: Very funky, earth, herb, mineral, blackberry, dark plum/prune, smoky toasty oak showing coffee and dark chocolate. Day 2: Very complex, earthy and funky, spice and herb blend (anise, nutmeg, thyme), orange and lemon zest, violets.
Palate:
Flavor: Citrus attack followed by plum, racy bing cherry with some pie cherry flavors. Finishes with plum, vanilla, milk chocolate. Day 2: Citrus, bright Bing Cherry, with small % of pie chart. Underneath all this this is a creamy chocolate, toasted oak and lively cassis.
Comment: One of the best Mondavi wines I've had (excepting Opus 1).
