Community Tasting Note

Sunday, November 15, 2009 - Remarkably fresh and young looking. A little bricking around the edges upon closer inspection. Nose is a little sour at first but begins to give off high notes of fruit with time in the glass. Initial acidic bite. Does not seem to give up much else at first; I'm afraid this wine is just going to fall apart but acidity is actually attached to semi-juicy fruit that takes some coaxing by serious chewing to come out. Tannins still slightly grippy. Lengthy but flat finish. Not great but I am pleasantly surprised. Needs food, preferably something beefy. Still has a nice nose on the second night with some very short lived integrated fruit flavors and acidity. Finish has completely flattened out. More sediment so decant remaining two bottles.
