Community Tasting Note

kenhoeve Likes this wine:

Thursday, August 8, 2013 - Showing better, with some perfume and the sharp syrah being slightly less abrupt. Again, what I like about this wine is how well the syrah and merlot are balanced, they fill in all the nooks and crannies of each other. It also moves extremely well from high tones to low tones while being seamless and round. Generous on the pop and pour but lightens quickly on the palate with very fine grained drying tannin. Gobs of fruit in this bottle but it is very well tempered by plenty of earth tones.

After a few hours open, this calms considerably and an intense, wound core of perfume and fresh berries dominates the palate. This, for me, indicates good things. I think this gets better. 93+
