Community Tasting Note

NostraBacchus Likes this wine:

Wednesday, October 21, 2015 - Medium ruby/purple Color. First slightly holding back but opening up with some air. Beautiful and elegant nose of blueberries, some black cherries, elderflowers, sweet spices, a touch of smoke/toasted oak, cigar and some tobacco. On the palate there are also notes of tobacco leaf, some herbs and also some licorice, as well as some dark chocolate. It's medium+ bodied but dense and has a pretty weightless mouthfeel. There is still medium-high tannin but it's super silky and a beautiful medium+ acidity adding freshness. Great length. A super elegant and refined Sammarco that drinks like pure silk despite the structure. Wow! It might even get a little better with a few more years in bottle. (96+)
