Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 12, 2020 - The blend consists of 80% Zin, 14% Alicante Bouschet, 4% Petite Sirah and 2% Carignane. We pulled this and a Pagani ‘08 to compare vintages. It wasn’t much of a comparison as the ‘08 was an off bottle and everyone easily found this ‘09 fresher, cleaner and an over all better wine. Zin funk, molasses, cinnamon, sblackberry, blueberry, plum, allspice, Draper perfume; an explosion of scents! A delight to drink. Not much rhubarb here, an observation shared by us all. Maybe a bit of coffee on the finish. Chunks of grainy sediment coats the neck of the bottle. 15% alc. With pork BBQ on Covid-19 lockdown Easter day. Recommended.
