Community Tasting Note

Friday, September 27, 2013 - The wine is a fairly deep maroon color. The big and bold nose has blackberries, cherries, licorice, charred meat, roasted herbs, plums, road tar, violets, and earthy underbrush. This full bodied wine has moderate tannins and good acidity. On the palate there is very nice balance between the fruit and savory elements but a touch of the alcohol is starting to poke out on the back end. The finish has very good length but again is showing a touch of alcohol. The fruit has faded a touch over the last year so the once concealed alcohol is making an appearance. This is still very enjoyable but probably needs to be consumed over the next year before the alcohol takes over.
