Community Tasting Note

Thursday, April 7, 2011 - Very powerful and fragrant nose that yields ripe, dark cherry, black pepper, potpurri, peppered bacon, smoked meat and leather. This literally hurt my nose when I smelled this wine-but I couldn't stop smelling it. In the mouth this was bold, with racy acidity. The tannins were gripping and herbacious. Even though this wine is a decade or more from being ready to drink, it's probably the best wine I've had this year. I don't know exactly how much Viognier is in this monster, but with the fragrance in the nose, I'm guessing there is 20%.
