Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 30, 2022 - Deep ruby core to medium ruby at the rim. Reticent nose opens over several hours to show still somewhat faint aromatics, which lean towards the darker end--black cherry, blackberry--and turned earth. The palate has decent fruit density, but the texture is rather firm and foursquare, with some drying tannins dominant on the back end. Not nearly as charming as an '07 Alpine from about 6 months ago. Hard to gauge upside. But i think a decant would be a good idea if you're opening this now.
