Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 20, 2016 - Hmmm, this one was a bit of a chameleon. On opening it last night, I poured a glass, and let that air for awhile (while vacu-vin-ing the rest of the bottle) ... and it was decent, but not inspiring with soft/muted fruits, soft tannins, and no real secondary notes that I could perceive.

Digging into the rest of the bottle tonight, it showed a bit better in moments while sipping before dinner, seemed to perk up a bit with our grilled strip steak ... and now is finally coming alive on the last glass after dinner. Tannins seem a bit firmer, black/blue fruits are now emerging, and it's put on a bit of depth. It's not the stunner that the last bottle was 3-4 years back, and yet, it's getting better and better as it sits in the glass. Was I perhaps a bit too impatient with this final bottle ...??
