Community Tasting Note

  March 7, 2014 - A surprise given the vintage and low critical reviews. Wine was stored in a temp controlled room since release. Not overripe or heavy, but still with broad shoulders and structure. Somewhat Burgundian with a medium color density and luminous color. Bright cherry aromatics with hints of mushroom, tar, earth, licorice, and cherry. Sometimes the fruit was very bright, focused and pronounced, and other times the earthiness seemed to stand out. This wine evolved aromatically a lot over the course of 1 hour. An excellent wine for the money (much cheaper than better vintages). The wine seemed like it could age longer, but is in a great place now.
