Community Tasting Note

Monday, April 3, 2023 - 3 1/2 hour decant (mag decanter). Nose: Initially after 1 hour aromas of olive tapenade and smoked meats. At the full aeration point more berry forward and floral aspects show. Palate: The palate follows the nose in the more secondary aspects showing earlier and the berry qualities more prevalent later. Tannins are very present but tamed with air although this is really a food wine IMO. It is quite good but at $60/btl it pretty much is worth the tariff so not as high on the QPR scale for a WTSO wine. That said it is delightful and will be nice to see how my remaining 2 bottles show over time sideways. I don't see this as a long term ager from here (perhaps 3-5 years max from now). 90+ points.
