Community Tasting Note

Sunday, May 31, 2020 - Dark smashed berries (blueberry and black raspberry), vanilla, black pepper, and a feint roasted meaty character. Loads of blueberry skins in the mouth with a distinctly shrouded overall character. Finishes with tight tannins reinforcing the perception on the palate that this needs to sit in the cellar for several more years before it will give up any secrets it may be hiding.
Definitely a poor showing today compared to other 2016’s (specifically Powell & Son and Torbreck). I’ve had other Shiraz similarly shrouded by youth and tannins that really came alive with extended cellaring, and for now I’m going to hope this goes the same way.
