Community Tasting Note

Saturday, October 25, 2014 - A bit cold when opened, but heats nicely up after half an hour. Shows cassis, dry dusty tannins, leather, pencil, some alcohol but balanced and overall a great classical bordeaux nose. Palate is powerful, fruity and balanced. Wonderful. But I have to admit I'm no bordeaux-lover. It always turns out too dry for me. The fruit is covered by dust and tannins. The little fruit that shines through is cabernet fruit with lots and lots of cassis, some complexity and a bit like a one-way-street. Combined with smoked springbuck tenderloin it works perfectly well, though.
