Community Tasting Notes 3

    January 3, 2015 - Still holding up! Excellent nose, fruity and fragrant. High acidity and astringency. Light, but we didn't see it as "thin". Well-balanced. Good fruit; red raspberries, boysenberry, little bit of cedar. Well-balanced. Opened up nicely. Will take another year, easily. Glad we have two more bottles. Will be a great summer red!!
