Community Tasting Notes 2

    March 19, 2011 - Nick Wittman visits San Diego (Quarter Kitchen - San Diego, CA): Tasted blind. Backward notes red currants, pomegranate, graphite, and black tea. Super tannic on the palate. There is potential there, but I just could not get past the tannins. My #3 wine; the group's #3 as well.

    February 28, 2010 - 1 Hour decant- A pretty garnet-amber-reddish-brick color. The nose is has a sweet and tart cherry/currant pie component that I find ultra interesting and I am truly in love with, and its ability to really balance itself so deftly. The palate shows structure, grace and elegance all wrapped in the plushest reddish black profile I have encountered in a while. I get dark cherry cola, reddish currants, spring flowers, some lead pencil, worn leather, and a hint of soft mocha. Again, that sweet-tart thing really is working for me. The tannins are fully evolved and the overall balance is exquisite! As I am writing this, I still sense the wine on my tongue, almost 3 minutes later, it just does not want to end, nor do I want it to. Class and charisma with breed and structure, all while being fun, giddy and playful. Incredible.
