Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, July 27, 2022 - P&P and remarkable change in color when poured in the glass, darkening into light bronze color within seconds. At first, a bit of aromatic turbulence, some bruised apples were rather pronounced along with a slight funky smell, had me a tad concerned. After 10 minutes, feat not. The nose receded back into a more fresh state, still a little funk, but given the 26 year mark, I’ll can define it now as ‘character’. The palate never faltered and fresh from the opening bell, this was a remarkable specimen of fresh squeezed citrus fruit over white flowers, a slight honeyed edge and a very strong lanolin quality in both taste and texture that surely has been a direct result of aging gracefully. I may keep a bottle or five from select vintages that I have in the cellar (07 to 19) to age out to the 20 year mark, but truth be told, I love em young. Still what a testament to a great aged Sec wine.
