Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, March 9, 2011 - Purchased 6 bottles, the first one opened about a month ago was corked, as was the first one we opened tonight. The second bottle opened tonight was quite nice, but 2 corked thus far out of 3 opened is troubling.

The nose was soft, this was not a wine whose scents jumped from the glass. Notes of red and sour cherries, with some almost meaty mushroom underneath. In the mouth, silky smooth, fully resolved tannins, just the faintest oak, and a fine sense of acidity; flavors more savory than sweet, a bit of cedar along with the cherries and earthy mushrooms, finishing fairly long and clean. The overall impression was of a very nice, pleasant, but not especially compelling bottle.
