Community Tasting Note

• grafstrb wrote: 90 points

  April 3, 2021 - -- decanted 45 min. before initial taste --
  -- tasted non-blind over 4 hours --
  
  NOSE: aged Nose: a bit muddled/earthy; muddled cherry; somewhat "dirty" at first; hint of mint; cleared-up with air, showing more clearly-delineated aromas.
  
  BODY: blood red color of medium-deep depth with bricking throughout. {forgot to note weight --- by memory, medium to medium-full}
  
  TASTE: tannic; oaky; medium acidity; coffee grounds; leans pretty dark -- Cabernet Sauvignon-esque; it's better with steak; light tar; light spearmint/mineral combo --- similar to Pauillac; best after an hour or two of air; gut impression score: 91. Drink Now and over the near term: I don't see this getting any better, and it's likely on its downslope already.
  
  50, 5, 12, 16, 7 = 90
