Community Tasting Notes 46

  November 12, 2020 - Tonight this was consistent with those earlier tastings, with somewhat subdued fruits, dark garnet colored, medium-full bodied, a layer of black tea moderates the spicy blackberry and boysenberry fruits, turning to the notes of licorice and leather on the gripping tannin lingering finish.

  June 14, 2020 - Very nice! Nose is stewed blackberry and cedar. Tastes are fresh, vibrant blackberries and semi-sweet chocolate. Andes’ chocolate mints on the finish. Tannins add a soft but lasting astringency.

  April 11, 2016 - Paired this wine with pulled pork sandwiches. The color and body were good. The drink was nice over all. It still had a slight oak and dark fruit flavors. It was enjoyable from start through finish.
