Community Tasting Note

Friday, July 24, 2015 - Initially all I wad getting was that Central Coast tar but half an hour open started to bring out some of that pepper. An hour or two later there some meatless folding in. Much thicker on the palate than I remember with a touch of a bite of the very end. The fruit has receded a wee bit maybe but it was still bright on day two. For those os seeking a leaner feel you are going to have to wait longer. For those that don't mind the richness, decant it for a bit. There isn't a ton of tannin and the acidity is lacks closeness to the fruit so I'm not certain about long term aging but you've got another 5 years at least I would going before you really need to give it another though. Fun and cool wine given the winery history and Vineyard.
