Community Tasting Note

Sunday, September 13, 2015 - Decanted for 20 minutes and throughout a 90 minute dinner. Wonderfull aroma of tart cherry, spice, and licorice at first. The cherries and leather dominated the palate, and were accompanied by soft tannins. I don't get any floral notes as others have suggested. Wonderful (94) for the first hour out of bottle. But then the fruit faded and stronger dusty tannin appeared, leaving only licorice on the palate. Had I drank only the later half of the bottle, I would score it a 90. Will drink my remaining bottles within 3-4 yrs.
