Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 8, 2021 - Birth year wine for my 32nd birthday.

This was admittedly an experiment as even with good storage this wine is well past it’s prime.

We were hoping for something good but it was disappointing. The wine was flat and had no legs. There was a surprising amount of fruit left but after 30 minutes decanted it had the barnyard taste.

We ended up pouring it out and switching to a few other bottles for the night:

Marcelo Pelleriti’s 2018 Cab Franc, which I can’t recommend enough.

A 2016 Freemark Abbey Cab Sauvignon, which was overpriced.

2018 Chateau Coudray Montpensier Chinon Le Grand Bouqueteau - excellent QPR.
