Community Tasting Note

  • coremill wrote: 86 points

    February 10, 2013 - Quite similar to a bottle of the 91 I had recently, and similarly disappointing. Earthy, leathery, some menthol, a bit anonymous, fruit has faded. Still a fair bit of tannin that while smooth is a bit blocky. Perhaps showing more fruit on day 2, but I can't imagine this needs more time. I'd rather bet that's it's past prime, but I would have thought this bottling would age better.
