Community Tasting Notes 5

    August 17, 2015 - Good value. Once more people drinking very young wine and expecting it to be smooth and mature. Ken's wine review online is very accurate. The wine has ample blackberry and blueberry fruit, a touch of spice, and sandlewood as advertised. Good body, and a lingering fruity finish. Works for me.

    June 8, 2015 - Very dark color. Nose is overly oaked and spice dominant, masking fruit.

    Palate is a syrupy blackberry with unattractive notes mid palate and on the finish.

    Shortly after opening, almost poured down the drain. Only slightly better a hour later. Worst wine I've had in a while

    January 23, 2015 - This was only OK. Not much structure. Sort of a flabby, fruit driven wine. Not unpleasant mind you, just nothing special.

    December 11, 2014 - Nice enough in a "country wine" kind of way. Quite tannic, with a lot of dried fruit. Very dry, a little vanilla. Not excited about it, even for $10 at Costco.

    June 25, 2014 - A nose of some dark fruit and spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied red, with black cherry, chocolate and spice on finish, an average Malbec. www.winelx.com
