Community Tasting Notes 2

    March 13, 2011 - Pop and pour on day one. Didn't even bother to write a note because it was pretty bland. Vinvac and on night three decided to re-visit. Very nice wine with a huge amount of spice on the finish.

    January 9, 2008 - Intense and inky, this wine turned my mouth purple after a single sip. The flavor is dominated by overripe plum and raspberry --almost too fruity and sweet. Tart acidity and racy tannins. On the finish, it becomes tarry with dark chocolate and lots of black licorice. Pretty good.
