Community Tasting Note

Friday, October 30, 2020 - -- decanted immediately before initial taste --
-- tasted non-blind over a couple hours --

NOSE: very savory --- green olives; stems(?)

BODY: medium bodied; violet color of great depth.

TASTE: high acidity; stemmy (or something stems-like); zesty; very tannic; 13.8% alc. not noticeable; comes across as very cool climate; a very unique, fun, interesting, and composed take on Peitite Sirah. I'm very interested to see how this takes to age --- it will be challenging to keep my hands off, however. Gut impression score: 91 – 94. Need to have another bottle to take a more careful look, as this bottle was consumed with guests, and my attention was largely diverted from the wine.
