Community Tasting Note

Friday, January 8, 2016 - Davyd's birthday at Hotel Michael. Pop and poured. Drank over 1.5 hours.
Appearance is clear, deep intensity, opaque ruby colour. Long legs.
Nose is clean, pronounced intensity, with aromas of sweet baking spices, licorice, chocolate, coffee, dark plums, blackcurrant, earth, slight used leather. Developed.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, high alcohol (16%), integrated high tannins, full body. Pronounced flavour intensity, with flavours of blackcurrant, blackberries, raisins, dark plums, licorice, cassis, sweet spices, mocha. Long finish.
Very good quality. Slightly more evolved than the last time I tasted it. This is complex, but no doubt big wine, and has the Burgandian palate screaming "bloody murder!". This will drink well for another 5+ years easily.
95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2.5% Touriga Nacional, 2.5% Petit Verdot.
