Community Tasting Note

    A little quiet on the nose. Some nice dark rich fruit comes out initially. Some spice and vanilla character as well. A touch of coffee.
    On the palate, there is some intensity here. Acidity and tannin wise this has a bit of astringency. It is delicious but the brightness and grip need to chill out. This wine will last another lifetime.
