Community Tasting Note

• Nike-Raider Likes this wine:

  March 31, 2016 - Decanted. Cork broke on extraction but the top 2/3 was in fair shape, not saturated.
  
  It took 10 minutes for the nose to arrive. More fruit than I would have guessed. Black currant, plums raisins, vanilla - no funk.
  
  after 15 minutes, pallet still needs time to blow off some harshness, less fruit, more wood and leather, pencil shavings. In the mouth I’m seeing the darker flavors I’d expect from an old bordeaux. still a twinkle of acidic tartness, but not for long.
  
  respectable finish of tobacco, black coffee, and a bit of bakers chocolate. NR
