Community Tasting Note

Glenn Gilbert Likes this wine:

Monday, April 24, 2023 - corkage at Kyle G's new seafood restaurant in Stuart/Port St Lucie, Florida; cork broke off half way out and showed wine seepage of at least 1 cm; nevertheless, the wine was seemingly unaffected by the failing cork; the effect of 16 years of cellaring was exactly what one might expect of a very good pinot noir to start with, aged close to its limits; tannins were like a shaft of bright steel in the center sporting a periphery of classic pinot taste with flashing taste bud shooting stars going off all the while; decanting and further exposure to oxygen only served to emphasize the dryness of this wine; the dryness carried over to the medium finish, suggesting that it would show versatility in pairing; in actuality, the four of us at the table had trout, grouper, and lamb chops, and the pairing was enjoyable in each case
