Community Tasting Notes 7

    April 28, 2014 - PnP w/15 min decant. Clear, deep purple/red color. Not at all what I expected. Profile of Very dark fruit, forest/barn floor, tar, tobacco, some funk, earthy. Sharp tannins at finish. More Burgundian than PAC NW. Drink now.

    September 13, 2013 - Deep purple in color. A bit of funk in the nose, which blew off to reveal red berry aromas. Flavors of red berry, white pepper, leather and spice. The fruit notes are giving way to more earthy flavors. This was my last bottle.

    April 12, 2013 - Dark in color, but still translucent. Aromas of cranberry, strawberry and a bit of smoke. Flavors of red berry, a touch of white pepper, spice and a bit of leather. The tannins are well integrated. The finish is long. Well balanced and seems like it could age a while longer. Great with salmon. One bottle left.

    August 21, 2011 - Candied fllowers with nuts and spice. Medium body pinot and solid acid. Smooth finish with cherries.

    March 29, 2011 - Medium crimson red. Still in good form with an impressive fruit filled nose that shows dark ripe cranberries, and hints at asian spice and light smoke. Full bodied and somewhat thick in mouthfeel. Really a versatile bottle that can turn large and dark to go with meat, or more elegant to accompany salmon.
