Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 11, 2023 - Vintage Wine - Bordeaux Tasting 11/11/23: 13.5% ABV. Deep ruby appearance.

Notes of blackberry, black plum, cassis, tobacco leaf, toast, smoke, dark chocolate, nutmeg. Oak still very prominent. Polished tannins but still a ways away from resolving. Good level of acidity helps provide an elegant mouthfeel and carries the flavors into a fine length of finish.

I like the fruit concentration and spice character this shows. This needs to lay down for a while to integrate the oak and round out the tannins, but this will be a force when the time comes. 95 point potential.
