Community Tasting Note

Monday, April 11, 2011 - I think this bottle may have been slightly corked. It wasn't nearly as good as the last time I tasted it, and it had a touch of musty cardboard in both aroma and flavors. That said, the wine wasn't bad. Cassis, herbs, drying tannin. But it lacked the purity of fruit expression I remembered, and the cardboard got worse with air rather than blowing off (a telltale sign of TCA). If I were scoring, I'd say this was about 85-86, rather than the 90-91 it probably should have been.
