Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 20, 2013 - Celebrated our 25th Anniversary with this 25 year old bottle I had been saving for the occasion. The cork was 75% stained, but the top 25% of cork was like new and the wine was in good shape. If blindfolded, you would know this was an old wine for sure from the nose alone. Some browning. Got tobacco and a little leather on the tongue - but the fruit has faded - there was only a hint of it left in the background. As we consumed, it was really cool to think how the grapes that made up this wine were actually still hanging on the vine as we were saying our vows. However, we also both came to the conclusion that, at least in this stage of our love affair with wine, we like them younger, bigger and more vibrant (that's what she said!"). If you have any of these, time to drink up while they still have a little something left.
