Community Tasting Note

• solana Likes this wine: 91 points

  December 8, 2016 - Decanted an hour; upon opening it was rather funky and disjointed.
  Expansive aroma of red cherries, dried fruit mince, and garrigue with a wild high toned earthy note.
  High toned flavors of sweet and tart cherry candy with a lot of garrigue and a fine earthy / spicy quality on the mid length finish. A brightness carried by both pleasant and volatile acidity gives the wine a wild feel, but never enough to be disturbing. Very good with hearty southern French food. I believe the wine has passed its peak, but is still on its plateau of tastiness. Drink up in the next year or so. A bit of heat comes on the finish after 2 hours open.
