Saturday night is Burg Night with Charlie and Edson (Maison MacKay): Nose shows tropical fruit with some vanilla and toast elements. Initially a little flabby on the palate and seems to be lacking acidity that would help balance out the weight of the fruit. Did improve with time in the glass.
Update: There was about a glass and a half left in the bottle which was consumed about 24 hours later. This was when this wine really improved, gained weight and lost the flab. Much improved in that time. Original score 88. New score 90.
