Community Tasting Note

Monday, October 12, 2020 - Cork completely intact on a 2004 Guapo. This drinks more like a smoky Pinot Noir and actually has some raspberry type element but a definite smoked characteristic with some leathery type of note. The nose actually kind of tells you the same... As if this was a 20-year-old Pinot noir that was starting to lose its fruit and balance. I will guarantee you this one had more dark fruit influence 10 years ago. Not as much anymore. This one actually seemed to drink better than a Guapo that was 4 years older although this one due to the muted presence of the berries definitely goes better on its own. What an awesome piece of Texas tempranillo history, and really glad I was able to hold on to this for as long as I was.
