Community Tasting Note

Thursday, May 12, 2011 - Florence & Tuscan Holiday; 5/9/2011-5/16/2011 (Florence & Tuscany): Popped and poured. 100% Syrah

Nose: A little initial sulphur on the nose which blew away in time to reveal wonderful fragrance of dried hay, herbs, juicy red currants and some chocolate and mocha. We kept going back to smell this wine as it kept getting better and better during the tasting.

Taste: Still very tight and structured. This clearly needs a lot more air. Couldn't get much from it at this point other than the precision of the flavours on the palate.

I would very much like to taste this wine again when it has opened up.
