Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 6, 2019 - Hard to believe I last enjoyed this over six years ago. Still a very vibrant, deep ruby color, medium plus body. Pronounced, complex and mature aromas and flavors of week old, cut red flowers; red currant; dried raspberry; stewed cherry; ground nutmeg; powdered cocoa; worn shoe leather, dried, cedar plank and some graphite minerality. Tannin and acidity are still noticeable, but all components are in balance; this can still handle a hearty cut of beef. Very long, dry finish. Although this is unlikely to improve with further cellaring, it also not in jeopardy of a quick decline either. I’m guessing this is still good for another 2-3 years, if cellared property. Outstanding at almost 12 years.
