Community Tasting Note

Thursday, September 26, 2019 - Checking in on this guy here and my note from 2016 is pretty bang on to this bottle, except that the tannins are more integrated at this point—really didn't notice them with food, but afterward there's definitely some woody grip to the teeth. Earthy, dry leaves, soil, oak, and black tea nose with a hint of rose petal. Medium body and finish, medium(+) acid, with flavors of cherry, black tea, lemon peel, and drying oak. I don't know about aging this much more—there's some tannin and acid to hold it, but I don't know that there's enough fruit to really pay it off, and the oak treatment is a little heavy. I'm thinking to drink mine in the nearish term. This is from 375mL BTW.
