Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 14, 2012 - Decanted roughly 3 hours and consumed over 2 hours. Virtually opaque red-garnet color. The nose is best described, to my nose, as sumptuous - loaded with rich cassis, tea, tobacco, herbs, and red clay so deep and heady that I just want to bury my face in it. The fragrance kept that pace throughout the evening. On the palate the wine is deep and intensely fruited, yet still moderately tannic and the balance is impeccable. This wine is hitting on all cylinders right now and if it gains complexity with more age it will be truly profound! Purchased from the winery on release and stored in my cellar since then.
