Community Tasting Note

Thursday, November 19, 2009 - Violaceous color with almost full, deep density -say 92% full density in color, vivaceous. On the nose, black cherries and some very faint hints of cotton candy, and very faint scents of ricola. Good entrance on the palate, showing pomegranate, dark cherries, with appreciable intensity, then hints of coffee, and sensational astringency that hits the sides of the tongue in mid-palate to the end. This wine is so fruity that makes it a sensational wine but lacks the character of Cabernet. On a blind taste, this tells me Syrah. Medium to full body only. The finish is persistant and does leave you with tobacco notes and some tannins, but this is not Cabernet Sauvignon.
