Community Tasting Notes 8

  January 6, 2024 - Red fruit with a noticeable cocoa raspberry note running through the middle of it. I agree with a previous note about low acidity and I am not sure there is enough tannic backbone to age this further however. I enjoy the James Cole wines but I have gravitated more to the suede bottling with time. This is good but not terrible unique.

  July 27, 2022 - The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, raspberry and toast. It tastes like blackberry, raspberry, medium toast, butterscotch and chocolate. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

  April 30, 2022 - Lovely pronounced nose greets you with red fruits, cloves, pepper, dank earth and some flower too, like begonias. Medium body, good acidity, with pleasing tannins (although this wine can easily age for another 5 years), the palate is treated to cherry jam transitioning to licorice with a cedar finish. A beaut not a brute.

  August 14, 2021 - Burly dark fruit. Still young and coming into its own. Will likely smooth out more with a couple more years. Mud’s is always great, this vintage no exception.
