Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 25, 2020 - Part of a tasting put on by Masi – what a difference a decade has made. In ’10, there were notes of red cherries, cola & spice, with a light & tannic raisin-y palate.
Following a 3 hour decant? Aromas of mission figs, blueberries & damp tobacco leaves. It was heavenly!
The palate did not disappoint either - with flavors of fig butter & chocolate. On the back end of the long finish there were cigar notes.
Elegant wine that drinks smooth right now – still a few years left in the tank.
