Community Tasting Note
jdtonic Likes this wine:
Thursday, April 9, 2020 - Perfect since Release
From The Wine Bank.
Opaque purple, garnet rimmed.
Minimal fine sweet sediment.
Nose of Amarena Cherries, Black Currants, Pine Sap, sage and sweet tea.
Moist Black Loam, Morello Cherry, Raspberry liquor and some cedar on the tongue. Notions of plums and herbs de Provence emerging. A big and deep wine just encountering secondary flavors and aromas. In a very good place. Wants food, but past delicious on its own.
*The service has suffered and the costs have blossomed at the Winery over the last decade. What kind of dump demands a business card to “Prove” industry? Then charges 135 dollars over retail? Then reneges on a tiny tasting b/c we tasted two “good wines?” CHRIST WE BOUGHT THE BEST BOTTLE ON SITE AND TARRIED TWELVE MINUTES. The girl was shocked.
Be advised.
