Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, March 9, 2016 - Decanted for four hours. Classic roses on the nose, with a hint of camphor. On the palate, sweet cherry, roses, weak black tea/earth, and a bitter tar/tobacco note on the medium finish, with moderate tannins and good acidity. The bitterness on the finish is offputting; I think it may be oak that is still integrating, based on a bottle I had several years ago that was quite oaky, so a few more years may help. Average to a bit below average value for the price (a bit under $40).
