Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 19, 2010 - After about two hours of air in the decanter I finally decided to throw some impressions down. Smashing nose of pomegranate, raspberry puree, hint of spice, some perfume and a bit of cedar box. A little bit of creme de casis, melted licorice, charcoal and maybe a hint of blueberry. Nice medium body with a fat and juicy mid palate. Dry angular tannins, not cloying or too thick but medium weight, decently linear and focused. Chalky dry finish, firm tannin structure, a bit of toasty oak and plentiful red fruits on the finish. A touch of heat, noticeable but it doesn't bother me. If it weren't for the heat, this would be a 90 point wine.
