Sunday, September 26, 2010 - 15.6% alcohol. decanted, and again, don't even think about not giving this wine some air. i'd have poured it down the drain if only tasted in the first hour. i'm happy to say that this bottle showed some development. i still don't think it's all that complex, but i didn't get the rough alcoholic edges and brittle tannin from previous tastes. ground pepper, black cherry, truffle. another plus, i didn't notice any heat, regardless of how long the decanter was out of the cellar. i'm gonna take a stab at staying away from future bottles for one year. let's see how i do.
