Community Tasting Note

September 8, 2014 - Double decanted 4 hours before dinner. Very dark in colour, almost no discolouration, very youthful. Intriguing and complex nose - blackcurrant, cherries, bramble, herbal with a lovely minty touch. Some forest notes and lead pencil, too. On the palate dark fruited, creme de cassis with a firm tannic frame, quite grippy, a little drying and fresh towards the long finish. Very persistent but rather masculine. Approachable but should be even better in a couple of more years. 95-96+
