Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 10, 2010 - From a 375ml. 4th for Palate and 3rd for Nose in a group of four.

Color: Ruby

Smell: smoked meat notes, red cherry, hint of cigar box. A slightly nervy and lithe nose that seems almost lean and reserved...like a flower that is about to bloom. Later this becomes much more perfumed and floral; yet, almost dark and musky like the sweat off a finely tones female athlete's body after a six-mile run.

Taste: snap peas, green banana, kumkuat, cranberries, pomegranate.

Overall: The nose is so interesting...but there is a dip in the mid-palate that leaves me almost shocked as it is so sudden. It will be interesting to see where this wine is later in time...
