Community Tasting Notes 7

  February 6, 2020 - Wasn’t paying close attention to what I had opened, but immediately guessed this was from 2007 based on the stewed fruits I tasted and less present tannins. It’s a dark red/orange color with brown around the edges. The alcohol, at a whopping 15%, shows itself on the nose, but isn’t bad on the palate. I am longing for more acidity and backbone.

  September 13, 2019 - Quit "warm" style, probably typical for the vintage. Lack some tannin and structure. I would drink up now.

  April 16, 2018 - Dark red center with a orange rim, strong integration of dark fruit flavors, silky smooth with a very clean light finish

  December 30, 2016 - In a good spot, fruit is good, tannins are pretty mild, could use some more structure.

  December 17, 2016 - 6th Annual Christmas dinner and cellar raid (Naperville, IL): Part of wine dinner and cellar raid. This was the opening wine for when folks arrived. Its been about four years since I last tried this and it was very disjointed back then, but time has helped this a lot. This was very smooth with a nice finish. Tannins are still present so I believe has a good amount of life left in it.
