Indie Winemakers Tasting Notes

Our mission is to provide unbiased opinions of the wine being offered. These notes come from up to 10 guests who tasted this wine in a blind tasting format (wine is concealed so their identity is unknown). Why this format? Tasting blind completely throws out any hype associated with a certain winery, style, price point, etc; it forces the taster to accept what is in the glass without any predetermined notions. Our guests utilize Robert Parker's Glossary of Wine Terms for their comments for consistency purposes. In addition, we utilize the wine aroma wheel to enhance one’s ability to describe the complexity of wine flavor. Notes are posted on this wine during the tasting to ensure they accurately reflect the impressions.

RLA: Chocolate and casis nose and taste. Full-body but very very smooth.
JH: Very nice, smooth wine. Medium bodied with a very long finish.
MA: Very smooth and rich without being heavy. Noted chocolate and cinnamon on the nose and taste. The finish brought out some ripe berrys.
