Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 21, 2014 - I don't get the oak that I got on the last bottle. Nice lively nose of cherry, with a little bit of cherry candy. A bit muted cherry, with some nice tannins. Not overly complex at the moment. Will revisit later after it has been open for a while, but at the moment this is high 80s for me.

Wow this has really opened up. From an 87 to 92. Nice nose of cherry, pine, earth, leather. Really nice aromatics. Still a bit closed on the palate. Nice cherry, and some nice secondary flavors. Still some strong tannins. I am sorry I only have one more of these. I want to wait a while. But I would definitely decant for an hour or so if you open one of these soon.
