Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, December 15, 2010 - Decanted for one hour, cork crumbled upon extraction. Nice ruby red core with some lightening around the edges. Nose has some bright red fruits, pomegranate, bing cherries, strawberry liqueur and a touch of warm raspberry sauce. Creamy red fruits, tobacco leaf, light roasted coffee beans, baking chocolate, bit of cellar dust and a touch of perfume like spices. Nice mouthfeel, silky and glossy texture, mellow toasted oak, fresh acidity in the middle, still some tannins present but is has shed most of its baby fat. Medium body, great texture and weight. Some dry chalky tannins on the finish with a smashing of toasty vanilla oak, baking spices, raspberry reduction sauce and some cedar box. Really nice wine that shows no signs of going down hill and is still very youthful.
