Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, February 3, 2021 - I bought this bottle in 2006 and have been holding out on drinking it as I have very few 2001s left.
50th birthday seems like a special occasion worthy of one the older wines that I have.
I expected little, thinking that this would be way past prime drinking window. In fact, this is in a perfect place today. Very mild bricking st the edges. Otherwise deep ruby in appearance. Plum and blueberry on the nose with a hint of spice.
Medium body with a hint of tobacco and leather backing some primary blue fruit. No hint of oak a d tannins have fully integrated. The finish is moderate in length.
I wish I have 3 more of these to try over the next 6-10 years.
