Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, June 14, 2023 - Already fairly tawny-brown on the rim. The bottle that I have tried is at peak or just past it. One thing to keep in mind is that I am not sure of storage conditions. That said, 2012 is confirmed to be a weak vintage in terms of substance, density. It feels thin on the palate. However, it has a pretty nose of spices, above all cola and mace. There is no primary fruit left over. Not too persistent in the after taste. A pretty wine a couple of years ago. Now it has to be consumed (at least the case from which this bottle comes from).
