Community Tasting Note

Friday, August 24, 2007 - Double-decanted for sediment reasons in the afternoon. Dark fruit (black plum and cassis), a bit of cigarbox. Tannins resolved, fairly low acid but not flabby. Seems less deep than bottles served at home, always a tad iffy carrying older bottles into city and deciding whether or not to decant. I actually take leftovers with me for the train ride home, in the last glass the fruit is fading a bit and getting pruney, but the tobacco, cedar, and lead pencil notes are much stronger. I'll say B/B+ on this bottle, from a wine I've gone A- on before.
