Community Tasting Notes 5

  February 8, 2021 - From 5L bottle
  
  Wax seal in great condition.
  
  Opened to celebrate the departure of a prick, unbeknownst to the host.
  Celebratory it was. Wine was in fabulous condition, and kept opening up after 90 minutes or so. We had our fair share but decided the bottle was too much for the number of tasters interested. We stopped tasting after 4-5 hours in. Delicious wine, more ageworthy than we give this bottling credit for.

  February 23, 2004 - If it weren't for some real juicy cherries to save the day, I'd say someone put **** in a bottle. It stank (not to holy hell, but still ...).
