Community Tasting Note

• cbbrown3 wrote: 92 points

  December 21, 2012 - The wine is a deep, dark violet color. The intense nose has blackberries, cherries, earthy underbrush, plums, smoked meat, dried herbs, stony minerals, licorice, and black pepper. This is very full bodied with sold tannins and decent acidity. The palate features an overload of minerals, fruit, and spice that put a stranglehold on the taste buds. Intense. The finish is fairly long and adds a bit of dark chocolate to the mix. This is still on the young side and could use another year or two in the cellar.
