Community Tasting Note

  June 21, 2018 - Double Magnum from the cellar, taken to Struan Lodge for the annual fishing party. In remarkably good condition, level into neck, no browning. Cork split, but eventually both halves were extracted intact. Not decanted for fear of rapid deterioration, but that proved entirely unnecessary, and it improved significantly with air. Slightly astringent with noticeable acidity, and a flavour I would describe as "red", deriving from a possible lack of ripeness or from rain-affected grapes. Nevertheless, a very enjoyable accompaniment to roast beef, matching horseradish sauce particularly well! In sum, a pleasant surprise.
