Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 17, 2011 - Drank over two nights. Medium dark ruby color. Initial nose is spicy/metallic, with good intensity. As it opens, there's fresh mushrooms, plums and a little slate on the nose. The initial palate is fairly clean, emphasizing plum and oak. There's nice spice on the midpalate that helps even out the fruit. The back palate gets a little thin and reedy. The finish has reasonable length and intensity, interestingly, there's some aspects here that recall a well-aged Burgundy as well. Decent, middle-of-the-road Cab Sauv. Cheers.
