Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Friday, November 22, 2019 - Opened this far too early. I would give it at least another 5 years (I will leave my other bottle from this vintage sit). Decanted for over an hour before first taste, and it really only started to settle down 2+ hours after pulling the cork. Lots of complexity - tobacco, cassis, some espresso and bitter chocolate. But the tannins are still overpowering and it needs time.
