Community Tasting Note

capnfutsal Likes this wine:

Saturday, May 27, 2017 - To the nose, equal parts blackberry, plum and black cherry but not fruit forward - more of a limited band. Slight oak and vegetal fragrance. On the palate, same fruit. Slight smoke and vanilla, plus slight cinnamon. Tannins apparent. Slight minerality - not limestone or wet cement, but like a rock. Medium-thin mouthfeel with short length. After 20-30 minutes it starts to open up. Will finish tonight and update if different. Nice to try mourvedre outside of a Rhone blend, but clearly it benefits from grenache and syrah as friends.
