Community Tasting Note

  December 12, 2018 - A week in the Northern Rhone; 12/7/2018-12/15/2018 (Lyon, Vienne, Ampuis, Chavanay, Hermitage, Cornas, St. Joseph, Condrieu & Paris): At the Chapoutier tasting room. 20% aged in barrel and 80% in concrete. Nose is typical syrah - dark fruits and some meat. Palate has dark fruit and black pepper on entry but falls off and gets a bit flabby to me on the finish. This wine is built for early drinking - within 5 years.
