Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Friday, January 23, 2009 - opened to celebrate inauguration
decanted 2 hours
still dark with primary aromas of dark fruit and little underbrush. Initially smooth entry finished with medium tannins and medium to long length.
This seems still young but there is pleasure there. If I had another bottle, I would hold for 3-5 years.

remainder placed in 1/2 bottle and corked and resampled 2 days later, with similar profile but slight fall off in aromatics...makes me think this has upside to storage (goes from a 90 to 92 on my rating)

5+13+16+8=92
