Community Tasting Note

kevinpatrick Likes this wine:

Thursday, August 12, 2021 - Cork Vault August Bottle Share--78 Giacosa Riserva, 85 Certan De May, 96 Calon-Segur and more (Charlotte, NC): Decanted two hours before sampling but needs at least four hours to open up. 2010 was a big vintage and it shows -- bright powerful nose of dark fruits. The wine was smooth and high quality though lacking complexity likely reflecting the need for more age and/or air. A pleasurable wine but I would wait some time before opening the next bottle or decant 4 - 6 hours ahead of time.
