Community Tasting Note

  • sirpat00 wrote: 79 points

    September 24, 2021 - Double-decanted. Black olives and brutally intense crème de cassis, liquorice and cold bacon fresh from the fridge. This was intense with lots of density in the first glass, but already felt a bit tired with initial notes of soy sauce. Unfortunately this deteriorated quickly and fell apart completely to an extent that we couldn't pour a second glass. Maybe I caught a weaker bottle as 2 years ago this was still very much alive and kicking. Judging from this bottle I will be popping my remaining bottles at the next best occasion.
