Community Tasting Note

kevinpatrick Likes this wine:

Sunday, July 3, 2022 - Sunday Drop-in at Cork Vault Charlotte (Guigal, Delas, Tablas Creek) (Charlotte, NC): Late entrant, decanted ~1.5 hours after the Rhones and hit its stride at the 2 hour mark.
Nose: Soft, gentle notes of raspberries.
Body: Elegant wine (but give it the full 2 hours of air); smooth texture and balanced red fruit notes. Easy drinking and more approachable. A crowd pleaser.
Finish: Medium length and enjoyable.
This "Southern Rhone" blend from Paso Robles was a fun and tasty complement to the Northern Rhones. 3 Votes for Wine of the Night which speaks to "all wine tasting is personal" and the bias of any amateur scorer as I had this a notch below the Rhones yet it was clearly a strong performer to the crowd.
