Community Tasting Note

  • Tansi Likes this wine: 85 points

    May 5, 2013 - This is ready to be drunk now. I don't think it will last to 2015 (the end of the drinking window I had estimated earlier). It has changed considerably in the past year. Still very much a barbara, it has a good, fruity taste (bit of blackberry), a bit of acid in the background to give it some tang, but almost no tannin. By no means a terribly good wine, it is pleasant and shows that cellaring means a lot to even low-priced wines.
    The nose was a bit earthy. It has a medium body and is smooth.
