Community Tasting Notes 4

November 3, 2016 - Powerful, vibrant, expressive, exceptional, sweet Cabernet nose. Surprisingly clear red color. Some typical South African grainy evergreen terroir with the fruit on the entry. Soft, possibly heavily filtered roasted red raspberry and maraschino cherry fruit. Past the nose and entry, things begin to fade badly. The finish displays none of the exuberance of the nose and the entry.

June 9, 2016 - For an inexpensive bottle, it opened up surprising well. Needs to breathe for a couple of hours before it achieves tastiness.
