Community Tasting Note

WineBurrowingWombat Likes this wine:

Tuesday, March 26, 2019 - Nose: Brooding dark fruits, deep earth, soft spice, subtle grass and wet bark (in a good way).

Palate: Juicy, dark red fruits like black cherries and a little bit of cranberries.. and deep, dark earth.

Darp, deep Garnet. Dry with medium, soft and chewy tannins. Medium to medium-plus body with medium acidity. Good finish of about 6-7 seconds. This didn't need any decanting and is enjoyable on an open and pour, enjoyed over the course of about 2 hours. Great fruit, rich on both dark fruits and dark earth. Smooth and enjoyable. I must say the 2014 is a lot more fruit-forward than the 2013. Can still sleep for a while, estimating at least 10 years but is still enjoyable now with the fruit.

*side note: Enjoyed with some salami and Brie and it made the wine taste creamy/more vanilla-y.
