Community Tasting Note

rikipedia Likes this wine:

Tuesday, December 4, 2018 - Terroir-istes International - France, Burgundy, Pommard (The Fat Butcher, Stellenbosch): (Tasted Blind): A light+ ruby colour towards an orangey rim. Damp earth and barnyard elements at first evolve to dark wild berries and black cherry. More sublte on entry there is a savoury edge followed by a chalky texture and strident acidity. Flavours of autumnal leaves, wet forest floor, wild berries, and redcurrant make the wine interesting. Fairly broad in the mid-palate, the noted acidity and firm finish result in a drying, chewy sensation that slightly builds.
Fairly muscular, there's enough fruit to work even though it comes across a little roughshod, with a coffee husk chary note that detracts.
