Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, November 23, 2010 - note is from about 90 minutes with the bottle opened.
In line with the great 2007 rhones.
Nice ruby red with a thinge of purple, tears of joy running down the rim after a whirl in the glass.
Nose has a mixture of red and black fruit, mint (pushed up by alcool heat, which is a bit too strong at the moment).
In mouth, strawberry and cranberry, then cumin, thyme and pepper. A bit on the sweet side today (I had another bottle a few days ago). Just a touch of shitake mushroom and soy sauce impressions left in the mouth after a good medium finish.
I had been more impressed with the first bottle, but while this is not a dirt cheap bottle, it is a really good QPR. Definitely a positive recommendation.
