Community Tasting Note

Saturday, August 13, 2011 - Poured a small glass out, then recorked for 3 hours. Notes are from serial tasting over next two hours.

Very young, some candied grenache fruit on the nose, not much in the way of savory components at this point. Great structure/balance, perhaps missing some desired acidity, and red fruit with a dense wall of oaken tannin that shuts the wine down to a large extent after a while, leaving some darker fruit elements at the medium-long finish. Good to great potential, but I don't foresee a 'blockbuster'. If I had to guess +5 years, 93-94.
