Community Tasting Note

Friday, January 29, 2021 - Cellared since release. Impeccable long, quality cork. Not decanted (entering window of fragility, in my opinion). Surprisingly deep ruby to the rim, pretty. Delicate but plentiful nose, with notes of blueberries and cherries, soft tertiary scents of sweet tobacco and faint unobjectionable mustiness. Medium-bodied (13%), more tenor than baritone. Medium-plus acidity, a little remaining dusty tannin. Finish has all the components, though it’s not a “grabber,” and not endless.

An overall impression of refinement, finesse, tenderness: Old World Bordeaux typicité. Great with food, inspires a moment of gratitude for the vineyard managers and winemakers. Drink soon, enjoyable but cresting, storage conditions will determine your specific experience.
