My shippment of 2014 Crowdsource Cabernet Sauvignon came in not long ago. I recieved three bottles of it. With three bottles, I figured it was worth opening one early and let the other two age.
Tasting Notes:
Dark ink in color, with scents of black cherry, plum, and licorice. Powerful flavors of a tart plum, fig, potting soil, and tobacco. Fully bodied though not as full as some and semi-smooth which I expect will improve with a little more time.
Final thoughts:
A quality wine with a very pronounced and juicy flavor profile. It's definitely an interesting wine and of course it's a discussion wine with it's bold flavor and the fact that it's a history making wine being the first publicly crowdsourced wine!

Tasting: 2013 L'Ecole No.41, Chenin Blanc
This Chenin Blanc is from the Columbia Valley, Washington State.
Semi-sweet and crisp. I believe this would be a great wine for a beautiful spring day. It gushes bright and lively fruits with a slight tartness and acidity near the finish that can cut through the sweetness of a tropical fruit which I would suggest pairing with it.
