Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 28, 2007 - Decanted for 2 hours. 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. This wine exhibited a dark garnet color in the glass. On the nose, aromas of dark cherry, blackberries, and plums were joined by hints of licorice and spice. On the palate, rich flavors of black cherries and blackberries were accentuated by notes of spice, chocolate, and hints of oak. A very young, muscular styled Cabernet that just got better and better throughout the night. The tannins were a bit overbearing upon first taste... but after the full two hours they really integrated and allowed the fruit to shine through. A solid buy that I'm looking forward to opening in a few years time. HS91+
