Community Tasting Notes 3

  • topher18 Likes this wine: 88 points

    October 17, 2014 - Vibrant clear dark red. Bing cherry, mint and lemon hints on the nose. Palate is more subtle, based around the cherry. Light tannins. Finish lingers and is a bit sour.

    August 11, 2014 - Cooked.
    Smells of the little Sunshine Raison boxes I had for school lunches.
    Deep violet color. Smells of red raisons.
    Tastes of raisons and other red fruits with a nice acid balance.
    Mouth generates some juices with each sip.
    Finish is a bit hot..some throat burn that suggests the stated 13.8% alcohol may be wrong.
    Not my Pinot.

    July 9, 2014 - Tastes cooked. Burned/cooked red fruit. Tons of acid...actually out of balance too much.
