Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 26, 2004 - Boxing Day with family (Richard and Naoko's): Undecanted/unaerated.

Still a fairly deep reddish color, solid throughout. Nose of a little sweet oak, some cassis and a little herb. With time (a little) slight notes of plum and dried leaf. Didn't get a lot of time, but don't expect much was developing. Palate was surprisingly sweet, but not large or round. Tannins noticeable but not intrusive, acid very slight. Finish okay, but light overall. Not quite watery...but definitely a little dilute. Perfectly enjoyable for current casual drinking and okay for the vintage, but nothing to get excited about.
