Community Tasting Note

caspernick Likes this wine:

Saturday, March 16, 2024 - Medium garnet with a touch of bricking, light staining and a high viscosity (13.5% ABV). The nose has medium intensity aromas of dusty earth, desiccated plum, dried coconut slivers, dried dill, black plum reduction, blueberry jam and a bacon streak. The palate is dry with medium acidity,medium body and medium tannins that are fully integrated. Flavors of dried/desiccated blue and black fruit combined with oak nuance and dusty earthiness that is a telltale off the region and of the Tempranillo grape. The finish is medium (-) in length and focuses on tertiary notes of tobacco, tar, dust and dried herbs. I fear this wine is just past peak so I had better drink up. I like it, but the points will reflect the lack of further development. I paid $20 per bottle and will give it 89 points making it a 4 star effort. It's grilled lamb for the pairing btw. Drink now.
