Community Tasting Note

anderegg Likes this wine:

Tuesday, November 3, 2015 - Initial smell of volatiles when opened, followed by red fruit and floral aromas. Color is red with a touch of brown fading to a bit of orange at the edge. Initial cherry flavor with heat, acid and a rush of tannin, so I may decant this before dinner. The wine definitely cleans the mouth at the finish. Legs show the 14.5% alcohol. There are some oak notes that linger as well as some savory herbs. Feels like the alcohol is blowing a bit hard across the palette. More air... Still hot after almost an hour open. Other flavors coming out with food. Mint or menthol. Some black cherry. Drank with homemade beef+pork tomato sauce over angel hair and a kale salad. Softening a bit after 1 1/2 hours open.
