Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 2, 2022 - So it was my good friend Michael's ##th birthday. We went with our wives to dinner at my club where we drank a 2009 Spottswood and a 2012 Backus for dinner. When we came back to the house after dinner I suggested we have a small toast to his birthday. So I poured us each a small glass and we toasted. This bottle was opened on Fathers Day 2021 and is still absolutely Outstanding. No degradation whatsoever and while not as good as the 1946 it is a very close second. Swirling flavors of dates, fig, plum, dark cherry and chocolate with a never ending finish. The best thing is that you cannot drink too much so I will still have plenty in fridge to take a glass now and then without worrying about deterioration. Its just amazing. Happy Birthday Michael.
