Community Tasting Note

  • Rob Hansult Likes this wine: 91 points

    September 29, 2021 - Fairly huge, deep ruby/purple color
    Nose > Big red & purple forest & orchard fruit, licorice, lavender & a hint of creosote.
    Palate > Very big, fruity & rich. Finishes dry, with just a touch of heat, but 1st comes a rush of fat, rich, ripe, luscious black, purple & red fruit, lavender, licorice, creosote & neutral(ish) oak.
    Round, fairly ripe tasting tannins finish it up.
    Impressive for being both pretty, & pretty big Rhone-ish blend.
    Make sure not to serve too warm; this would be fine @55-60F.
    Perfect with my Bison Cheeseburger.
