Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 2, 2013 - One year between bottles, and this is my last 06 MT in the cellar. My note from 2012 and drinking the wine now, there are similarities and for what it's worth, this note is like that one having the advantage of 24 hrs of air. Similar to the last bottle, showing black cherry and red apple. The wine is still texturally soft, akin to the remark I made in my 2012 note about lacking 'finesse'. Graphite on the nose with this bottle, not something I found last time. What I find now is a plumper wine, yet enough cranberry in the finish to give it some lift, some decent acidity. I'd not age this much more and would recommend hitting this wine in the next 1-2 years, say before end of 2015. It's ready now and drinking fine.
