Community Tasting Note

Saturday, April 26, 2008 - Deep dark red fading to clear rim. No sign of ageing, but not purple.
Exotic nose, persistent fruit, tannin, spice, perhaps a little alcohol.
In the mouth, lovely concentration but not huge. Silky mouthfeel but normal viscosity. Tannins are rounded not linear. Red, plummy ripe fruit, unforced. Tannins underpin the fruit finish, but do not dominate. Very long in the mouth, harmonious, succulent finish.
Has a good life ahead (e.g. will improve next 5 years) but tremendous now.
