Community Tasting Note

• AnonymousCoward Likes this wine: 87 points

  July 22, 2017 - Not as enjoyable as the last bottle. It's still robust, but rather than the good fruit notes, there was more cured meats, and the oak was much more evident. Maybe a dud bottle (curse that cork nonsense). It's still OK, plenty of dark fruit and firm, grippy tannins.

  I suspect I have some "export" version of the wine. A lot of export stuff is still under cork. Or, some winemakers are releasing their wines under both stelvin and cork, and then monitoring to see how they both go. Might contact Bleasdale to get the story.
