Community Tasting Note

Thursday, November 6, 2008 - Like many of the notes below, this bottle was surprisingly more awake than previous bottles. Alas the other nine bottles were consumed before their time unfortunantely. The bottle was out of the cellar about 30 minutes before I opened it. The aromas in the glass were of dusty black fruit with a strong focus of cocoa, hence the Rutherford Dust in the mouth. The tannins were evident and very alive but also allowing the dark rasberry plum fruit to be exposed. Alcohol on the nose was aparent but I did not think it detracted from ones ability to taste this bottle. My best bottle yet and the winner at the "Thursday Lunch" table.
