Community Tasting Note

Monday, August 3, 2009 - Absolutely no question about the qpr on this one as it just doesnt get better for $20. That said this is not one of my favorite Carlisles to date. It has the fruit, density, concentration thats expected of the brand. There is a bit of something, almost very Olive like, that in one sense makes it interesting, but takes a bit away at the same time. I go back and forth from liking it and thinking too much about it. This one needs some time though and is rather structured and tannic now. I dont think these are over oaked, but I did get quite a bit after switching to this from a simple and nice 07 cdr. I bought 8 but will definately wish I'd bought more once they are gone.
