Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Saturday, February 27, 2016 - Not as good as last bottle from 6 months ago, but still a nice wine. Fruit more subdued this time. PnP which may have been a mistake. Purple plum in color. Very nice nose of blackberry, floral elements earth and spice. Palate a little clunky at first but expanded with earth, licorice, spice and a hint of blackberry. Not as smooth or fruity as prior bottle, but no tannin evident. Suggest a decant for several hours.
