Community Tasting Note

    August 31, 2012 - From 3.0L, served at cellar temp with the host removing the cork 4 hours prior to service. Too much wood, that's all I got for the first few glasses; then it moved to tightly wound wood, cherries and freshly cut radishes. It wasn't until the third hour or so that this really began to open up and show its stuff. Still, even at the 6 hour mark (long party) it never really wowed the way I hoped it might. Somewhat reminiscent of the 94 in many regards.
