Community Tasting Note

  June 7, 2015 - Plowing through samples (My Place - Washington, DC): Medium ruby. Deeper currants, some black cherries, more soil and charcoal elements than the regular bottling, some tobacco. The tannins seem a bit more structured, still low on the acid, but the black currant, raspberry and black cherry fruit is smooth, not as candied as the regular bottling. The old vine presence is felt in the wine’s velvety, dusty appeal, and the loamy, graphite and iron notes. I get some tobacco and grilled herbs on the finish. Fun stuff, showing some moderate complexity and the potential to develop over the next two years or so.
