Community Tasting Note

Monday, February 16, 2009 - Decanted for 5 hours then funneled back into it's bottle: A nose earth and wet wood, dark fruits, dark chocolate and some rosemary, also a hint of green olive. So delicate, the tannins are now completely relaxed and dissolve leading into the mid-palate. Subtle brighter fruits on the palate than the nose, some earth and wood smoke, no edges whatsoever. The drying acid doesn't come on until 5-10 seconds into the finish and is very gentle. Overall everything about this wine is gentle, the flavor, the nose, the tannins and acid. Excellent wine, drinking beautifully now, 91 points.
