Saturday, October 22, 2022 - Decanted for 2h. Deep ruby red color, nose of tobacco leaf and earth; this is distinctly savory in flavor; some dark fruit, red currant and bitter cherry fruit. Tannins are starting to soften considerably, but it still makes your mouth pucker. I don't think it's 100% cabernet sauvignon, it's more similar to a petit verdot. Overall not bad, but not my taste.

Sorry about the Corton Grancey as I only enjoy when 12 years or older.
