Community Tasting Note

  August 25, 2013 - I had such a great experience with this wine I had to make it my first public tasting note.
  
  In a word, beautiful. Smooth and elegant.
  
  The cork had rotted through, but it didn't spoil the wine. Cleaned it up and decanted for 3hours. Taste at the beginning, I didn't think it was going to need much of a decant, and it probably didn't, but reservations were a few hours a way. So in the end decanting didn't do much. Tannins were smooth. This is my first experience with an aged wine, most have been 10years or less.
  
  The wine looks Ruby colored. The legs are Slow.
  
  It tastes like Black Pepper, Cherry, and Plum. The body is Full. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Medium.
