Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, September 25, 2013 - Strong dark red. Dark red fruits, spice and metal on the nose. The dark red fruits splashes across the palate with some truffles, forest floor and, as eharkins notes, "rusty iron." The wine is dense with some sweet sappiness balanced by tongue coating tannins and good acidity. An elegant but somewhat rustic wine. It definitely held my interest and is a wine that speaks of place but it was was a bit lacking in the pleasure category. Not great QPR but a good wine and I do not feel like I made a mistake at $60 as a library release (wish I paid half that on release but I have many, many regrets in life. This one does not weigh heavily)
