Community Tasting Note

  • Fur in the glass Likes this wine:

    August 23, 2013 - During a four hour decant nose had caramel, fig, grape, soap and brandy

    1st glass: rich chocolate but not sweet, light finish that just wouldn't quit
    Lighter in color than I had expected, kind of burgundy like in that respect

    Glass two: brown sugar coming up more clearly on the nose, seemed sweeter on the palate

    Second day
    Glass one- quite cold, plum on the nose with more spirit as it got warmer. Fig, plum, cake on the palate. Not as hot as the first day. Syrupy but in a good way

    Think I preferred a '83 Taylor's I had earlier this year. Just a bit more in that bottle but this was a good drinking experience as well
