Community Tasting Note

Monday, September 18, 2006 - Iniatially the nose was a bit volatile and spirity. This mostly blew off to show ripe blackberry fruit, but a little volatility remained. The wine had a somewhat rough mouthfeel, more from the moderate alcohol (14% abv) and acid than tannin. It would have benefitted from serving at cellar temp rather than room temp. It should also improve with a year or two in the cellar, as there is plenty of material and structure. No noticible new oak. Pretty good overall, I'd like to try it again in a year.
