Wednesday, May 16, 2018 - -- decanted immediately before initial taste --
-- tasted non-blind over 2 – 3 hours --

NOSE: medium to medium+ expressiveness; hints of mint and dark fruits --- concentrated plum; oak; stony mineral.

BODY: black-garnet color of great depth, with slight to moderate bricking throughout; medium-light to medium bodied.

TASTE: medium acidity; tastes aged, but still has lots of fruit; plum; blackberry; fruit is ripe, and sweet; stony element does reveal its age; slight drying tannin; I don't see this getting any better; not terribly structured, but that's perhaps a bit unfair to say given its age; paired well with pork chops. Drink Now.

50, 5, 12, 17, 8 = 92
