Community Tasting Note

f22nickell Likes this wine:

Tuesday, June 11, 2013 - Picked this up for a steal while on travel for work; Prescott, AZ of all places. Drank in my room in a plastic cup :-)

PnP. Nose was a bit mute at first, but opened to dark cherries, pencil shavings, and a hint of eucalyptus (hard to get much from a plastic cup.) Palate was very fruit forward, strong flavors of dark cherries. However, there was just enough acid and tannins to keep it in check. Tannins were smooth, but will integrate further with time.

I enjoyed this wine, but it was a bit one dimensional. I also didn't pick up any indicators that this will evolve much down the road. I'm afraid the fruit will just fade with nothing to replace it. Tannins will hold for awhile so recommend drinking now through 2018
