Community Tasting Note

Friday, February 13, 2015 - Well, I did manage to wait two years before revisiting this one and while a few of its WV Pinot counterparts have fallen apart, this one still holds its integrity.
Rich and darkly complected fruit aromas, like blueberries and strawberries macerated in powdered sugar with an herbal backdrop.
Medium to full bodied juice has a smooth entry with a fair degree of acid and, while totally integrated, the tannic structure shows up on the back end.
Palate reflects the nose, dry macerated berries, herbs, and some earthy tones.
Dark raspberry notes make a cameo during the finish.
Comes across equally as big and weighty as the Betz Syrah we are having on the same evening.
Similar impressions as last time, a delicious -if big and Syrah like- Pinot that is structurally and texturally sound. Plenty of life to go while being in a nice drinking window now.
