Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 11, 2016 - First Mac since the disappointing 10.
First sip, my teeth feel like fingernails on a chalk board.
The most astringent wine in memory, more like hard as nails Italian than a Cab.
A four hour decant is recommended, make it 24.
Hate to be negative, but why not.
My first Mac, the 2010, total fruit bomb.
This one, attack of the tannin monster.
If you own any, wall them up for some future Indiana Jones to unearth, years from now.
