January 20, 2005 - Chateauneuf du Pape tasting at Hi-Time (Hi-Time Wine Cellar): Very brown in color. Not a pleasant nose - tea, prunes - smells much older than it is. Very similar notes on the palate - thin, no fruit, tea-like flavors. No finish to speak of (at least in anything resembling a pleasant finish). We all tried to figure out if this was a bad bottle, or just really, really aging prematurely. We decided to go with a bad bottle, and hold out hope for the bottles in our cellars. No rating.
