Community Tasting Note

dsgris Likes this wine:

Sunday, June 8, 2014 - Very dark ruby, some iodine on the nose. Dry with some tart bitter tannins, chalky fruit, lemons. Need to wait a day, not in balance at all, 82 PnP. Overnight on the counter has resulted in marked improvement, bold cherry pit fruit, good body with tart tannins. Still on the raw side with VA prominent. It needs another night, 88 pts. Reading my previous notes, it is taking longer to come good than several years ago. Are we in a doub stage or what? Another night, nice nose with some orange, complex flavors of candied cherries, orange glaze with bacon bits, some tart candied tannins on the finish. Jolly Rancher Cherry with a nutty overtone. Still could us a few more years.
