Community Tasting Note

89 Points

Sunday, December 7, 2008 - Day 1, would give this an 84. Dark purple, monolithic nose, strong fruit made it acceptable, but it was disjointed and hot on the finish. What a big change on day 2. The nose gave cedar, mint, tobacco and some cocoa, the palate had a nice mix of flavors with a finish that lasted 20 seconds or so; the heat was still a bit there, but not as predominant as the night before. I would give this a couple more years, if the fruit can hang in there, this could balance out fine.
