Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 11, 2015 - From magnum. Tingly spice and an umami stickiness to the nose. Dry leaves, dried porcini, blackberry, red and black plum. Overall a sweeter nose than the '90. Slight heat and harshness to the back of the nose. The palate has red plum and red cherry with a tartness that contrast the sweetness of the nose. One can almost detect ripe cranberry and tart red raspberry. A long finish with spice, dark fruit and pepper. A solid performance for this wine and while I found the '90 to be better overall, on this evening the '89 was a much more elegant wine.
