Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, February 15, 2022 - -- decanted 75 min. before initial taste --
-- tasted non-blind over approx. 3 hrs. --

NOSE: tight and a bit alc. noticeable; light to moderate wet stones mineral note emerged at approx. the 100 min mark.

BODY: dark garnet-violet color of great depth, with slight bricking throughout; medium-full bodied.

TASTE: soft, with good acidity; dark red/purple fruit mix; seems a bit non-descript -- almost like it's stripped a bit, although it did perk-up somewhat when paired with steak; smooth; high acidity; not really tertiary, but I'm worried it will fall apart before getting there; perhaps in the front end of its prime drinking window? Will likely check-in again in a year or two.
