Community Tasting Note

Rob Hansult Likes this wine:

Saturday, May 1, 2021 - Nose > Minty cherry, smoky cassis, roasted tomato & black truffle, with some older (not really so much anymore) "neutral" oak. (the website claims a blend of new, 1 year & 2 year; I'm very dubious that there is not some % of oak quite a bit older than 2 yr barrels in the mix; the nose doesn't lie).
Palate > Sappy, spicy & grippy. Red & choke cherry, dried flowers, rose, lavender.
Good balance & acidity. Med intensity.
Bordeaux blend; was told this also contained some Carmenere.
(Ah, from their website: 60% Cab Sauvignon, 30% Carmenère, 10% Merlot)
Another excellent red that I would have preferred younger.
(92+)
