Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 8, 2015 - Intention was to audoze... cork fell into bottle. Cork was also mobile and soft. {sigh} need an ahso or other decent pull. Was nervous as the top of the cork was black. Poured into a decanter gently and served immediately.

Nose was delicate old red toned fruit pinot with old leather nuances. Screamed history. MMs of bricking and somewhat cloudy red/brick appearance. The wine flowed across the palate with graceful acidity and delicate cherry flavors. Wine was fully resolved. Agree with gutt's assertion of slight imbalance. No alcoholic detraction. Finish was lengthy and thought-provoking. Awesome.

Better than the 1996 I had recently.
