Community Tasting Note

Thursday, December 10, 2020 - Okay, so this one has probably lost about 40% of its mojo. I would call this one on the decline. But you could definitely tell what this one used to be. I'm not so sure it was ever a black fruited 'napacab' that seems to be so popular these days. But definitely red and black cherry fruit used to abound, and really sort of did today after about 1 and 1/2 hours of decant time. The nose makes this one seem more youthful than it is on the palate. But on the palate, this one is showing a little bit of raisin. It still has a moderate bit of that red fruit and black cherry, but there is a fair amount of tart, and the finish of this one is a little bit flat.....Short. Fruit has lost its punch. I have a couple of these so I definitely feel there is probably some bottle variation with the others. If you're holding on to these, I would open them now because it is not at peak anymore.
