Community Tasting Note

Thursday, May 21, 2009 - Bright, deep garnet. The nose was all dark fruit at first, but it was too warm and it needed air. I chilled it down a bit and let it breathe, and now it's lovely. ESJ wines have such a wonderful sense of place. Very earthy, slightly funky bouquet .. loaded with garrigue, pepper, and berries. Silky smooth on the palate and very well balanced with medium body and moderate acidity. The tannins are resolving but show room for further evolution. The peppery finish is long and delicious. This was our last bottle, but if I had more, I'd love to revisit this in a couple of years.
