Community Tasting Note

Friday, January 15, 2016 - Decanted 1hr, 6th bottle tasted of 8, best showing yet, last tasted 8/12, 1st tasted 2008, has been in the same cellar location since 2007. That being said, secondary flavors have clearly taken hold of this Shiraz/ Cab blend and for the better, plenty of evolving aromas and flavors. Big earthy licorice notes, with wild blackberry, currants, cassis, dark sweet plum and bitter coffee notes that added to the complexity. Based on this well stored bottle, ready for action, but no hurry to consume, maybe over the next 5 years or so. Extra note: (Heavy sediment)
