Community Tasting Note

• tate491 Likes this wine:

  February 9, 2015 - The Underground Blind Tasting Group: "Clos" (Houston): Garnet color. Restrained red fruit on the nose with wet limestone and saline quality as well. This wine was just so pretty and a joy to drink. Crunchy, bright, restrained red fruit that had me intrigued from the beginning. The fruit was so delicate and airy that it just danced across the palate, but somehow it also had a stern, rocky structure ending in chalky tannins that at the same time seemed to stand in opposition to the delicate fruit. That tension between the two kept me going back to the glass all night. This wasn't the most open wine or most complexly flavored wine, but it was by far the most intellectual one of the night.
