Sunday, May 24, 2009 - Decanted half a bottle for 30 mins, consuming over 2 hours, and reserved the other half for the following evening. While I've enjoyed many bottles of this in the passed, this was not a good showing for this wine. Disjointed, tart, a bit of eucalyptus and tannic. Could sense the underlying fruit, but it was disjointed.
.
Day Two - Wine had softened and become less alcohol-forward, with fruit more prominent but not better integrated. Last bottle of this was a year ago, and much better than this. Either this was an off bottle or the wine is entering a dumb phase. Try again within 6 months to confirm one way or the other.
