flawed

Monday, February 19, 2024 - 14% alcohol. This is the "deuxième mise". Decent cork with minimal inscription. Decanted an hour ahead. The colour is dark with very limited thinning at the rim.
The nose is vivid with an interesting mix of red fruit and black olive. The mouth is similar with a certain roughness in the finish, and a flavour which is quite familiar in a non-wine context but which I can't put my finger on.
I suspect that there is a problem with this bottle as it does not seem to be on the level that I was expecting.

PS: after revisiting this bottle seven days later, I am now of the view that it is affected by a very low level of TCA, and I have changed the rubric accordingly.
