Community Tasting Note

JonnyG Likes this wine:

Monday, March 6, 2017 - From a magnum. I thought for sure a hard decant would be required to wake this youth up, but it was open for business immediately, and showed little evolution through the meal, save for a temperature related aspect noted below. Nose of cassis and black fruit, with some evident alcohol. Rich, layered palate, with more red and black fruit and a touch of mocha. Fine complement to a steak dinner. Clean fruit driven in the beginning, when the wine was close to cellar temperature, but as it warmed, the oak became much more overt. Recommend serving at no warmer than 60°.
