Sunday, May 8, 2022 - This bottle was unfortunately slightly oxidized. The fill and condition overall was excellent, but oxidation took away a good bit of the beauty that this can have.
Nose was oxidative, but offering plum, leather and herbal notes. Palate opened to deliver some plum, sasparilla, clove and sweet baked cherries. But the browning elements did not fully go away.
Enjoyable, but not a fully correct bottle. No score as a result of the oxidation.
