Community Tasting Note

ashikoh Likes this wine:

Thursday, February 21, 2019 - Light ruby in color. Dramatic aromatic lift with notes of red cherry, freshly cut roses, sage, menthol, and mulch with oak spice accents. Mid-weight with good acidity and very long, bitter finish. Sourced from the oldest vines in Seven Springs Vineyard and representing Evening Land’s smallest production bottling, the yields are very low as the vines are own rooted and slowly succumbing to phylloxera. The grapes are fermented 100% whole cluster then aged 16 months in 100% new French oak Ermitage barrels. This is a lovely wine that is about subtlety rather than sappy fruit. 12.5% ABV. $100.
