Community Tasting Notes 22

  March 24, 2015 - At a dozen years of age, I didn't know what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised by a moderately complex, nicely balanced, moderately polished wine with dark garnet color and medium body. An expressive nose with flavors of kirsch, floral, with brambly black raspberry fruits, tones of cola and a hint of mocha taken over in the mid palate turning to predominant spicy tangy acidity with smokey red fruit and candied cherry on the firm tannin laced lingering finish.

  December 21, 2013 - Slightly past it's peak,but still enjoyable. Very smooth without the typical peak notes you would have experienced 3-5 years earlier

  September 1, 2012 - A nose of dark fruit and some spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied Cab, with blackberry, cherry, some earth and spice, easy drinking, a good value.
