Community Tasting Note

Thursday, November 12, 2015 - From a recent purchase, VTS fill. Cork breaks on removal, the color is worryingly brown at the rim. My fears seem justified upon tasting as there are some maderized notes. But after an hour of air, this snaps out of its death spiral and shows really lovely. The nose has big mint-wintergreen and black tea with some cassis reduction as well. The palate is sweet, spicy and suave, with good depth and a big hit of brown sugar. Comes across a little flat though. This is fun and delicious, despite a less than pristine bottle.
