Community Tasting Note

jordanj Likes this wine:

Friday, January 22, 2021 - Dark and opaque. Still. Nose of ripe dark fruit with gorgeous, yes gorgeous notes of tobacco, soy sauce (but less reductive than it connotes), some fresh tree bark, smoke and light potpourri. This is amazingly fresh. This is showing some tertiary characteristics but still well embedded in it’s secondary phase. I think it was Neal Martin that describes this wine as suspended in time. Exactly! The palate is dry and tannic. Definitely not well rounded and fleshy as the nose might suggests. 94 points on a technical basis is generous but warranted on an enjoyment scale.
