Community Tasting Note

Thursday, August 24, 2023 - Opened in HK. Slow-oxed for 2 hours before slowly enjoying from glass.

This was disappointing, unfortunately - I was hoping for more roses and fruit, but it was more tertiary than I expected and the nose was quite subdued. Tannins were quite firm and slightly bitter at the start, but these did round out a little with more air. Was this a bad bottle, or is it just in an awkward place? I'm not sure - but I know that I definitely enjoyed the 2011 I had recently much more in every aspect.
