Community Tasting Note

Vinnut Likes this wine:

Thursday, March 9, 2023 - Medium-deep, dark garnet in color with slight clearing at the edges. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of floral & earthy/dusty notes & classic cigar box notes of cedar & tobacco, leather, herbs, mint/anise, spices, minerals & a hint of vanilla/oak. Full bodied with very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blackberries & black plums with herbs, spices, minerals & a hint of vanilla/oak. Long lingering smooth finish. Drinks quite well at present & at 40 years of age, it is at its peak of development although it may hold here for a few more years. However, I doubt any further development would occur with additional aging, so drink up. Fill was in lower neck; cork was stained 3/4 up but intact. An amazing wine!
