Community Tasting Note

Monday, May 21, 2007 - Dark garnet. Beautiful and captivating nose. Initially the menthol smoky syrah pokes out, and with airing some mourvedre funk, earth, herbs and faint barnyard. The mouth flavors seem to highlight more kirsch and grenache fruit, though. Warm, rich but the earth tones dominate over fruitiness. Handles the 14.3% abv with ease. Spicy black pepper laced cherry on the finish, good ripe tannic structure. This was open a couple of hours before I tried a glass. Very good with definite potential to develop with age.
