Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 3, 2016 - First of a case. Decanted nearly 2 hours. Deep ruby colour, still quite full. Initially quite closed aromatically, but opens up a bit when worked. Some elegant notes (floral; eucalyptus?), but overall quite tightly wound claret. Good on the palate - medium bodied, still some primary fruit but with secondary nuances now too. Not exceedingly complex mind. Balanced. Some length. Gives great pleasure, and drinking very well just now. But there's enough acidity and sappy tannin - and overall balance - to suggest this will keep going (though not necessarily improve) for a good while yet. Very good.
