Community Tasting Note

Thursday, June 7, 2007 - Still very young, so a little hard to see what's developing. But seems lighter and less pronounced compared to some recent vintages. Nose was fairly soft and seemed tight at opening. However, an hour or so later, it started to open up. Flavors were also closed though there was clearly good full fruit deeply locked in there. After a couple of hours the tar and floral notes typical of Ferrando's Carema started to show, along with quite a bit of tanning developing at the end. Still seems a little unintegrated, but overall a pleasurable drink. I can't give it the usual higher marks I've given to some other Caremas of 95 or 96 or 2001, but may need a couple of years before I can see if it really integrates and blossoms.
