Community Tasting Notes 3

August 2, 2015 - Could agree with others as an everyday wine; although do know that it’s much more earthy and full bodied than its Pinot Noir parent. This wine has an excellent deep red color with a nose that’s a bit closed. Even after 2 hours open, faint hints of banana and rust appear. Upon open and first taste—and later confirmed—this wine is fairly one dimensional without a noticeable mid-palette. The dark fruit hits and dissipates with only a right-hook smashing your mouth with its long dry finish. Overall I’m neutral; this is a decent wine that will complement rich, mouth-watering foods.
