Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 9, 2010 - Burgundy Night at Martin and Joyce's (The Serenade): Still very young, but the quality of the vintage shone through. Nice enough nose. Sweet candied cherries were paired with some fhunky earth and hints of leather, along with rose petals and rubbery notes with just that inflection of tar at the edges. More sweet, ripe cherries on the palate were carried on fine but firm tannins and fresh acidity, all lending a sense of balance and elegance. Still very primary though. Finish had a nice length, with spice, stewed tea and an unusual touch of baked bread. Some quality here, but the wine is really still a baby. Another 10 years would do it a world of good.
