Community Tasting Note

  April 12, 2021 - There is a nice wine with black fruits and mild acidity here, unfortunately it is underneath an oak barrel.
  
  Seriously though, way too much oak, this is really woody tasting and the wood dominates what may be some blue and black fruits. I really don’t understand how a winery is only using 30% new oak at maximum (according to their website) manages to make a wine so oaky. Beyond the oak dominance, the wine is ok, although it is a bit overly extracted and is lacking acidity. Unfortunate.
