Community Tasting Notes 3

    June 18, 2010 - A blueberry pie nose leads to integrated basket-weave of blue and black fruits. Accent of leather and oak over well-structured tannins. Only a short finish holds this back from classic status among Finger Lakes Merlot. May improve over 1-3 years. Decanted prior to tasting.

    March 17, 2010 - Rich dark fruit, plum and smoke. Medium weight with round tannins and long finish. Opening up with time - pomegranate, lilac, and mocha.

    March 17, 2010 - Blackberry black cherry and smoke with hints of cardamon in the nose. Palate is fruit driven with firm, slightly styptic tannins. Finish is lengthy, moderately tannic, and filled with raspberry and smoke.
