Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, September 16, 2008 - Dark and inky in the glass. On the nose is a lot of dark fruit with raspberry and cassis thrown in for a pleasant balance. On the palate is dark fruits, a lot of black currant and clay. Very tannic but in balance. It will benefit from further cellaring. Medium finish. I can see the wine's score rising with some time in the bottle. I don't have a clue what grape this wine is, but it has a lot of merlot characteristics. That would be my guess, is that its main component is merlot, maybe blended with some other varietal or varietals?
