Community Tasting Note

Bob H Likes this wine:

Friday, May 8, 2015 - I apparently had a bottle of this last December that I liked, but at this point have no recollection. The cork on this particular bottle was faulty, and after failing to get it out in one piece, I was forced to immediately decant the wine.

Color is still translucent ruby, but a shade or two darker than the '86. Great nose - fruit, smoke, wood scents - quite complex on the nose.

Smoother and more well-integrated on the palate than the '86, but on opening I'm not sure it's any more interesting. A lot more weight/presence, though. We'll see about "final grades" later tonight.
