Community Tasting Note

Sunday, June 10, 2012 - Showing some age in the colour and also with a slightly dull hue.
The nose however shows a healthy mix of mint-edged blackcurrant, subtle green pepper and a touch of coffee. Meanwhile, on the somewhat velvety palate, there is some rich plum to join the fruit and (more noticeable) coffee, together with ample acidity to keep it in line. This wine strikes a nice balance between still vibrant fruit/velvety texture, and enough restraint and acidity to avoid any risk of flabbiness.
