Community Tasting Note

  December 11, 2015 - Wine felt a little tired upon opening; all muted, stewed fruit, and earth. After about 3.5 hours in the decanter it opened up a bit and continued to do so. Sharp, red and dark raspberry, leather, not as much nervy character as other vintages; acid is also lower than normal, but it was a warm vintage throughout Europe. Next bottle i'll either wait 5 years, or let decant 5+ hours and see whats going on.
  
  Not enough info to score.

  4/15/20, 5:18 PM - I just open one tonight. 4 plus years from your comment. Same experience. I almost dumped it out...muted prunes, dirt, no fruit. I poured it in the decanted for five hours....and it was much more presentable..decent dark fruit, and some depth of flavor.
