Community Tasting Note

Friday, March 17, 2023 - One of the brett years. Its well integrated though. There is just sort of that mashed in sweaty sock and thing on the nose. It sticks out the most when opened and gradually folds in over time. The nose also features some still bright and ripe fruit. Like just passing out of primary into secondary. Hints of tomato behind raspberry, cedar and cassis. The palate is darker in fruit expression with some forest and mineral notes. It comes of a bit hollow with the ripeness of the vintage again rearing its head. But I gotta say this really integrates nicely overnight. The body fills out and the bretty integrates and this becomes another Forman that casts those Bordeaux shadows. I'd give this a vigorous decant at least an hour prior to consumption right now. It's showing more like 15 years old rather than 25. Last night I was just cool with it. Tonight I'm giddy.
