Community Tasting Note

Friday, August 26, 2011 - Excellent marriage of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Color: dark red core with velvety ruby edges

Nose: flowers, violets, kirsch, some sweet oak, but not too much, crushed rocks, and tobacco

Palate: firm tannins, almost a bit too drying so a few more years should mellow those out but don't wait too long as the fruit could fade. Iron and earth, tobacco, cherry and some plum notes peak in and out. Long finish, great wine.
