Community Tasting Notes 5

July 1, 2021 - Color: dark ruby
Nose: dusty raspberry, incense, plum, sour cherry, cream soda. Almost some lime zest
Palate: high acidity, low tannins, medium body. More of the dusty raspberry. Some black fruit too more on the berry side of things
Finish: medium
Nice dusty vibe through this Barbera with good varietal showing and an uncommon tartness on the nose. QPR pretty insane, completely destroyed the fancy cali pinot right next to it2 people found this helpful Comment -

February 14, 2020 - Dark fruit (cherries?) and alcohol.
Acidity overpowering the fruit, but then it is a young wine. We'll see how it develops in a couple of years.1 person found this helpful Comment -
