Community Tasting Notes 8

  February 25, 2023 - Cork broke, pushed through. Bouquet was wonderful and evolved into a fantastic nose.
  
  Forest floor, some presence of fruit left. Peak after 30mins.

  February 2, 2023 - 1985 Bordeaux-o-rama (Noize): There was some debate as to whether this was slightly corked, or just OTH. Initially chemical nose developed after 20-30 minutes into something deeper, like espresso, but the palate never offered anything other than 'old wine'.

  February 2, 2023 - Jason’s 85 Claret @ Noizé, table 2 (Noizé, London): Somewhat cloudy. Either really quite austere and clipped despite a rich texture, or corked. Apparently this revives, but no benefit of the doubt given. No.

  February 9, 2020 - Cork soaked, but could get it out completely in two parts. Beautiful color, only a hardly visible rim of aging colors. Earthiness with remnants of fruit, nice acidity. Limited complexity, limited length, but overall I was surprised in a positive way.

  October 17, 2018 - Quite good QPR aged Bordeaux considered I bought it a year ago. Cork was soaked and some leakage, thought it was gone but still gave it a try.
  
  Straight from bottle. Expected easy entry and soft tannin. Fruit is almost gone. Sweetness balance the acidity quite well and improvement shows after 30mins in bottle, picked up on body and aroma. Classic Bordeaux, alcohol level just right for me.
  
  Length: medium
  Body: medium
  Balance: 7/10
  Aroma: hints of cigar box, tobacco and plum but not very pronounced
  
  Drink and should not hold any longer as the aromas are fading.
  
  Overall a good experience, me, my wife and sister-in-law enjoyed it very much.
