Community Tasting Notes 29

  February 15, 2023 - There’s quality fruit in this wine, although maybe less ideal than what the winemaker was hoping for. But the pedigree is there. However, I just wish they didn’t have to go and try to make it better. I wish they had just let it be. Because now there’s a doctored up quality to this wine that I don’t really love. Pretty cherry and mapled fig on the nose. The palate is a bit to saccharine and synthetic for my tastes.

  December 22, 2021 - Youthful still, and quite substantial. 14.1ABV with oak needing a few more years to integrate & soften the fruit. Delicious, not overly complex, rich & dark black/blue fruits. Nice match with med rare duck & lamb tonite.

  September 8, 2021 - Slow oxygenated for 6 hours. Notes of black cherry, cola, fig, and black tea. A little heavy handed on the palate, with a kick of heat.

  November 18, 2017 - Deep, mature fruit, balance of fruit, acid, tannins. Still dark, just about right in 2017.

  April 9, 2016 - Dark, abundant black & blue fruit, just enough ripe stem, subtle acid and appropriate tannin.... fully mature, I think, with fruit gathering minor characteristics of decline. Recommend drinking within 2-4 years if well stored.
