  12/24/2023 - El_Dougo Does not like this wine:

  Slow oxidized and expressive nose within minutes of opening. The usual trappings of super ripe Napa: oak, blackberry, high alcohol. Full body, med+ acidity. Ripe tannins very well integrated. Just not my cup of tea.

  4th Saturday Uptown Brown Bagger (MM's): Double blind. Dark youthful color. Aromas of soy and raisin. Full-bodied with fine-grained tannins and flavors of black currant, soy and plum. Better on the palate than the nose suggests it will be, but this is not my cup of tea. No guess, but having tasted this earlier in the year I am all but certain this was not a representative bottle. (R&D)

  Friday Group Brown Bag Tasting (EBCC): Double decanted off its sediment and served perhaps three hours later. Dark fruit with a dusty edge. Hints of spice and barrel toast as well. Ripe plummy fruit on the palate with a nice finish. A bit young yet, but there's good potential.

  This is aging nicely, tannins are softening, notes of Black Cherry, Tobacco, Cassis and some Vanilla.

  I think this is the first time I've truly understood the "cigar box" tasting note because this wine has it in spades, along with cassis/currants. A hint of oxidation on the palate which suggests it's good I'm drinking this one now -- might not have lasted much longer. Enjoying it!
