Community Tasting Note

Teaky Likes this wine:

Tuesday, June 15, 2021 - Drank from bottle over 3.5 hours, nose evolved a bit from when first opened at cellar temp to when wine hit room temp but had a consistent black cherry note, started a little muted with blackberry, then got vanilla after around 30 minutes then cassis and red cherry, with raspberry coming out at end, very fruit forward aside from the brief vanilla phase. Flavors evolved too and largely mirrored the nose so nothing much to add, again there is a consistent cherry flavor but flavor wise get a good amount of red cherry. Quite tannic but still very good is probably at the beginning of its drinking window, surprisingly acidic for such a ripe wine. This is very nice and is great for a big bold Cali cab fix, would never be confused with an old world wine so look elsewhere if this is what you’re after. Somehow paired well with pizza particularly the sausage component. This is very nice.
