Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 21, 2015 - Decanted for 2 hours. Tasted blind. Received this bottle from a friend I met on Cellartracker, Dave (see his note as well) and the plan was to open the bottle on the same night to compare notes. When I told him I had a wine club meeting that night he said I could open it there. This had a beautiful nose of cedar, currant, cherry, plum and lead pencil. On the plate, this was bursting with flavor including notes of dusty berry, cherry, blackberry, earth and iron. Ended with a big iron finish with red fruit notes woven in. Beautifully soft tannins at this point that glide across your palate. Immediately looked this wine up and sad to see they are no longer making wine. Tried to find out who bought the vineyard and will have to keep digging. Shame Dave didn't have the same experience we had but certainly a fun little experiment! Thanks again Dave!
