Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 11, 2023 - Fabulous cork, minimal infiltration, slightly soft, but withstood extraction by corkscrew. Medium burgundy(what else?) color. Confident that wine is intact. First sip. Fantastic fruit concentration. Earthy also. But then as quickly fruit receded and as reported by others, then became tannic. But even so still beautiful and oddly delicate due to refined acidity, which means not so crisp as to be fierce, and more like an undercurrent. The acidity is really nice in this. So odd, small sips reveal wonderful fruit and acidity but larger sips and fruit distant. What did impress me is that I had this over 5 days, and the fruit got incrementally better each day except the last, where it held. Relayed my experience to a wine manager and said he never heard of a burgundy wine displaying this trait. Some slight sediment in my last small glass on the 15th.
