Community Tasting Note

GuanYu Likes this wine:

Friday, July 21, 2023 - Blind tasting. Orange, brick rim, oxidized blood red center. Red fruits, herbs, tea, smoke, tobacco, leather, hawthorn, orange peel and incense. Very tannic and bony structure.

Wine was aged prematurely for a 1996 Grand Cru. Label stated the bottle was imported by a merchant, Stacole, in Florida. Back then wine was shipped by sea and without climate controlled. The bottle, along with others in the lot, might have been exposed to heat during transport.
