Community Tasting Note

pmarlo Likes this wine:

Thursday, April 14, 2022 - Brought to restaurant to celebrate 44th wedding Anniversary. Cork crumbled in half for waiter, then bits fell into bottle. Was soft but not infiltrated. But tasted and fruit and wine okay. Very smooth and still fruit present, but compared to the first bottle I had 6 years ago, receding a bit, but not in full retreat. Back then I wrote wine needed a day, but was totally ready today. Heavy sediment, as server poured into decanter, and as I has my Vinfolio, then filtered. Really good profile, felt similar to a Dominus cabernet at this tasting. Ruby in glass. Went well with the spiced tomato and olive of the branzino I had. Tannins well integrated and they never intruded. This wine is totally ready and I would drink sooner than later. If you have them stored in ideal conditions, and feel cork still holding, I might go 5 more years. Recommended
