Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 27, 2013 - Very soily nose. Palate shows very focused tannin and character. The mouthfeel is terrific being silky and lovely. A nice clean Loire red with those dirty type notes that make it fun. The second night reveals that while the fruit is ripe enough is seems to lack some concentration leaving the middle a bit hollow. The ample acidity but not really driving or giving this a solid core underneath the fruit. This is a solid Chinon for the medium to short term. It might benefit from a couple more years but I wouldn't want to lay this one down a long time. A lovely wine if you like the type.
