Community Tasting Note

jlhkiss Likes this wine:

Wednesday, May 4, 2022 - Opened and decanted for 30-min ahead of hearty chicken noodle soup. Dark, purple-violet color. The nose is hot (alcohol) and brings cherry blossoms, licorice, black tea, and crème de cassis. The palate is medium-full, square, concentrated and sharp, bringing a solid core of blueberry-rhubarb pie, dark cherries, wood smoke, plums, baking spices, and red raspberries into a hot finish. This wine is still primary. The wood and alcohol are not yet integrated, but given the pedigree I expect this will even out by 2024-2032. Technical score: 92. Enjoyment score: 91.
