Community Tasting Note

  February 19, 2021 - Decanted for an hour but it needed more. Very dark and indeed ‘brooding’ as the label declares. Dense, but rich nose of coffee, cacao and blackberry. Less engaging on the palate as it’s just so heavy but it does have a hint of pepper and mocha. Not as well rounded as the 2012 but if the body catches up with the nose in a few years, this will be wonderful.
