Community Tasting Note

• MarkLA wrote: 91 points

  November 7, 2015 - Given 2 hours of slow ox then decanted 1 hour prior to dinner.
  
  Upon opening, obvious aromas of merde dominate the nose & the palate is muddy. With some air, the nose & palate clean up, leaving a nice fruit note. We press on.
  
  During dinner, the wine has deeply pitched notes of raspberry, dark brown sugar/molasses, some leather, tobacco, herbs, and crushed stone. The palate is clean, still quite primary with racy acidity and a long mineral finish. Beautiful and on its way to something good (91-93 pts).
