Community Tasting Note

wicozani Likes this wine:

Thursday, November 23, 2023 - Opened at 0900 for Thanksgiving. Purchased on release. PnP. A medium+ ruby robe with shades of purple extending out to thinning but still colored edges. Long languid legs indicative of the high glycerol and ethanol in the 2005 vintage. The nose beckons with plum, tobacco, forest floor, pencil, and a hint of smoke. Meaty aged blue-black plum, pouch tobacco, and just a touch oxidized. Still some tannins hanging around on the finish.

Will update this note after seeing how it progresses and behaves with our turkey Thanksgiving dinner.
