Community Tasting Notes 3

January 28, 2018 - Dense and rather ripe fruit, oil paint and some marzipan on the nose. Initially rather fresh on the palate and with mainly red fruit but then some darker fruit takes over and also some more denseness. In the finish the acidity becomes very citric and some slightly dry tannins appear. Strong character but I lack some finesse in this wine.

August 13, 2013 - Decanted for approximately 1h. Tannins strong but good integrated. Nice fruit, something reminded me of the fresh fruit with yeast one tastes when tasting directly from the barrel after the frementation.

October 5, 2011 - In my opinion the tannins are still very strong. Opened and drank after about 10min in the glass, maybe tecanting would be the better idea.
