Community Tasting Notes 2

March 18, 2020 - Dark ruby with minimal clearing at rim
Medium aromas of black fruit with predominant meat/ smoke
Medium/ thin palate - rather lackluster and primarily black fruit and pepper
Medium plus coarse tannins on the gums with medium acidity and rather short finish
I found this a bit atypical for the region and not the best example I've had -

March 18, 2020 - Single blind tasting
Dark ruby, filtered
Medium + aromatics with no oak. Smoke, meat and secondary black fruit
Medium palate with medium + tannins (gums and palate, coarse), medium acidity and medium + alcohol. Black pepper and black fruit.
Length is medium, mainly driven by the tannins. Balance is a little off, again due to tannins over fruit.
