Community Tasting Notes 8

  November 2, 2019 - Uncovered several 2002s and a 2003, part of a Woot stash. The cork was crumbly but was able to extract it and strained out the few crumbs that got into the wine. My expectations were not high due to age but despite being long in the tooth, it was appreciated on a chilly fall night after raking leaves with some chicken parmesan.
  Thanks to Peter wellington and father.

  September 11, 2010 - Brought out after a BBQ with friends when we had already gone through a few wines. This was certainly well received, and vanished quickly, and I highly enjoyed it. Just doesn't have much complexity and is probably nearing the end of it's optimum drinking time.

  October 30, 2009 - The cork broke into pieces when opening. I tried to strain. The wine was quite earthy and may have had a bit of of corked taste

  July 12, 2009 - Just pulled it out of the fridge after five days and let it warm up. Minty but not over the hill, tart cherry fruit. Very tasty. Based on this would age past current CT stated window of 2010. Better than on first night.

  April 21, 2009 - This is darn good stuff. The 2004 is a notch less.. Really intense fruit dominates. Kind of makes me wonder how long this stuff might last. Tons of sediment on both the neck and base of bottle.
