trifecta Likes this wine:
January 21, 2018 - Drinking really well right now. Tannins are rich, but fully resolved. Long finish. Plenty of sediment, so pour slowly and don't disturb your bottle. Used the ah-so, but the cork was still in good shape. This could likely hold a bit longer, but I'd drink up while it's in a good place. This is from the era when concannon still made quality wine, not the mass produced plonk they shill now.
