Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 7, 2012 - 2012 - A brand new start with the gang: Alcohol :: 14.5%
Cloudy dark red with light brown rim. Popped and poured. Beautiful complex nose of kirsch, raspberry, red cherry intermixed with a touch of dark fruits, pepper, licorice, roasted herbs and mineral. Muscular on the palate but well defined. It immediately coated the mouth with high tannin and intensity. This does possess sufficient level of concentration and fruits for the balance but just at the moment the structured is dominated. Long spicy infused finish.

2nd day: Similar nose that is complex and intense. The structured has mellow down and tannin is well integrated. Smooth entry with very good mid palate depth and sappiness that formed by the delicious concentration of sweet red and dark fruits, a touch of spices and some woody tone. Finished is long and spicy, but also a touch of alcohol heat appeared.
