Community Tasting Notes 2

  November 3, 2014 - A Vosne-Romanée Night: At first some over-developed aromas of balsamico and wet rotting logs. After just a few minutes these not-too-optimistic nose reside and it becomes an intriguing and complex wine with very mature strawberries. Some VA though; sweet mouth feel, come caramel, slightly spicy, forest floor, long. So, after 20-30 minutes it begins slowly to die in the glass. Rating when it was at its best.

  February 17, 2013 - Sunday Night Wines: Not the best of fills, 4.5 cm, soaked and loose-fitting cork. Clear long brim, definite browning, lightish color; oxidized on nose with some prunes after a while. Much better in the mouth, there is a wonderful complexity and balance there, albeit overthrown by the oxidized/dried berries taste (no bullion). Bottles in better condition may be really wonderful.
