Community Tasting Note

snipes Likes this wine:

Monday, September 12, 2022 - Birthday celebration wine. Paired with duck breast with red wine reduction sauce.
Purchased a few years back at auction. Price sticker shows $19.99. :) Stood up for a week prior to opening and As-So'd the cork. Fill was excellent and cork in good shape. The wine showed it's age initially and was a bit funky and tired the first 30 minutes while it caught its breath and warmed up. It continued to improve over the next couple hours and showed well both on the nose and palate. The last glass was getting a bit tired at the 3 hour mark.
It was a nice birth year treat for the birthday girl. This particular bottle could have held for another ~5 years.
