Community Tasting Note

Thursday, April 17, 2008 - Hmm....so this is definitely unique. Wasn't sure what to expect going in, but boy did it make an impression! Super dark in the glass - pretty much opaque. On the nose, very extracted fruit and a bit of blood as well. Once you taste the wine, the weight of it really hits you...it's syrupy...unctuous almost. Now, I haven't heard that term used to describe very many wines, save Cheval Blanc, Pavie, and Ausone (not that I'm comparing this to them in any way). However, the term seems to fit here. The finish sort of just drops off disappointingly though. A very interesting wine.
