Community Tasting Note

• berko Likes this wine:

  September 7, 2017 - Opened my eurocave and once again the sliding doors of the lowest compartment blew out leaving a slew of northern rhones at my feet.
  
  This bottle caught my eye and was poured into a decanter via an aerator 30 minutes prior to dinner of chicken parmigiana.
  
  Ruby purple to the rim in the glass.
  
  Nose is slightly wild and gamy but balanced by a lovely floral character and a pleasant bitterness that keeps things from being uncomplicated. Alcohol seems way more prominent than the 13% indicated which detracts somewhat.
  
  On the palate there is muted black fruit and flowers and kalamata olives with a really nice acidity which cut through it all.
  
  Love it.
