Community Tasting Notes 14

    December 12, 2013 - Deep red color. This seems somewhat thinner than the last time we drank it, but medium bodied. Somewhat astringent and the acid overpowers other flavors. Not a particularly long finish. Earth and smoke on the nose, but those scents seem to dissipate quickly. Well worth the price.

    April 25, 2013 - Rioja evening (Started at Wine-Bar, ended at HaTraklin): mature wet-earth, leather & chocolate tertiary aroma;
    med harmony & complexity, however quit enjoyable and very good value for money.

    April 22, 2013 - quite impressing aroma of wet-earth, leather & baking chocolate, lack complexity and structure on the palate.
    Overall good value for money.

    March 24, 2013 - A knock-out fairly priced Rioja. Great dark fruit with savory leather and tobacco mixed in. Wonderful wine.
