Community Tasting Note

Friday, September 18, 2020 - Very smooth medium bodied wine. The fruit is a little on the thin side so you have to be patient. Lovely nose with the fruit exhibiting an unusually fresh scent. The palate is sophisticated with secondary characteristics. I find a combination of cherry candy, red raspberry, and blue fruits. At 15.5% alcohol one would think the wine might be hot, but the hundred acre Ark is smooth and resolved like a fine French pomerol. This is a wine that you do not want to rush. It is best to sip without dinner and ponder just on its own.
