Community Tasting Note

dlu Likes this wine:

Tuesday, February 14, 2023 - Bought at the vineyard in 2020.

Day one: Clear, saturated ruby; nose of red fruits evolving into vanilla/toasted wood, hints of forest floor; vivacious acidity, not much tannin, and tertiary flavors dominant. Seemed a bit hot vs 13.5 ABV in the label. Nicely complemented a tagline of beef and carrots with aromatic spices (cinnamon, cardamom, fennel, cumin, etc.)

After a few days under vacuvin: aromas now tending toward cedar, tobacco, and cloves, palate still bright with pomegranate, sour cherry, and some minerality. Moderately long finish.
