Sunday, January 21, 2018 - From Coravin: Tannin monster needs 3+ hours breathing in the glass before it is accessible, and even then, only with beef stew. Could be more balanced. Certainly needs a few more years of bottle ageing to clam down.
Maybe this bottle is not showing well although there's no obvious flaw.
I'm not terribly impressed and not sure it's worth wasting cellar space for this particular bottle. Perhaps it will go into the next stew instead of keeping it.
Giving it the benefit of the doubt. No score until I try another bottle.
