Community Tasting Note

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Likes this wine:

Sunday, November 5, 2023 - Bay leaf, allspice, cinnamon, smoke, dust, ripe black cherries and ripe raspberries on the nose. Intensity of aromas is medium +; and the spice aromas are dominant. There are some oak aromas; but they're pretty well integrated with everything else. On the palate, it's totally different. A burst of ripe red cherries and ripe raspberries followed by the cinnamon and finishing with the same fruits and a touch of dried green herbs. Intensity of flavors is high. Overall tad tight on the palate, though. It's over a little quicker than I wanted it to me, and I hope bottle age helps with that.

Medium + body with medium + tannins. Developing. You should definitely hold this. I think the palate will unveil more of itself with a few more years in the bottle, and I also think some tertiary notes would compliment everything that's already here. Check back in 1-3 years is my recommendation. As it stands, a good pairing with braised beef.
