Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Thursday, January 27, 2011 - Wine as tasted blind.
Color: clear, medium, ruby

Nose: clean, medium, youthful, fruit (cherry) and some secondary – a spice like “minerality”.

Palate is dry, no alcohol noticeable. Body is medium, tannins are medium, acidity is medium, fruit is medium. Fruit is slightly lower than the acidity, especially for the American market. Flavor follows nose with fruit and minerality. The intensity of flavors is medium. The finish rides along its acids, so is short.

Overall this wine is of good quality for its “freshness” of acidic and fruit balance. It is youthful and will develop further. $20.
