Community Tasting Note

  • aaronfullen wrote: flawed

    March 8, 2018 - This was a bottle purchased on auction with good fill. There was some mold (or something greenish) between capsule and cork. Cork was ok aside from the top.

    For me, this bottle was way, way past its prime to the point that actually finishing a glass was a tough call. Color was good; a faded garnet. Not very aromatic.

    Palate was leather, old wood, potentially a bit of TCA.

    Not going to rate this wine as it isn't the bottle's fault I drank it much too late.
