Community Tasting Note

Friday, September 28, 2018 - First Forman and mildly disappointing. Decanted thirty minutes. All present agreed it was a good accompaniment to dinner but didn't taste as expected. Very acidic, muted red fruit, somewhat harsh tannins. Drank more like a well made Chianti rather than a $100 Napa Cab. I understand the reputation of the bottle and the fact it was probably opened far too early, but thought the fruit-forward vintage might have compensated. I was wrong. Recommend a long decant or plenty more years in the cellar.
