Community Tasting Note

Friday, July 5, 2019 - Not quite as pretty as it was 18 mo ago. Big nose of blackberries, blueberries, bay leaf and other herbs, cedar, new leather, and earth on the nose. Some raspberry comes out with a little coaxing. Cassis, blackberries, blueberries, earth, herbs, and a touch of alcohol on the palate. Moderate acidity, nicely integrated tannins, medium-long finish. Huge wine. Concentrated, alcoholic, fruit-forward. Hmm, I'm a bit torn on this wine. It's big and the quality is there, but it lacks a little charm at the moment. But if you need a *big* wine at a good price (at the mailing list price), this could be a good choice.
