Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 16, 2016 - I could have sworn I had a bottle of this a year or two ago that was much more wide open than this one. This one is at a fairly difficult stage, somewhat boxy and gritty in texture. It takes a few hours before some tarry, charcoal-flavored Graves typicity emerges. I was surprised not to find this more expressive after a 1995 showed terrifically just a few weeks back. Needs a few more years at least.
