Community Tasting Note

Friday, February 12, 2010 - Dark, slightly cloudy red (no signs of bricking). Strawberry bush and softly burnt toast on the nose. A little frizzante at first, then strong fruit - raspberries, cranberries, and blueberries - comes through, well integrated acid, woody tannins, and a tangy, medium finish. I was worried about it being past its prime, but it was just fine.
Day 2: Vacu-vined and left on counter. Have to say it is much improved tonight - no frizzante, no burnt notes, no tangyness, and now there's a big burst of cherries in the mid-palate, plus the finish is longer and better. Should have decanted it last night. 89+.
