Community Tasting Note

Friday, November 9, 2018 - Far too ripe for us. Maybe this bottle, maybe our changing tastes, but this struck us as prune-like in the extreme. The more air it was given, the more objectionable it became for my personal, can't-stand-over-ripe-wines, preferences. I recall tasting this on release and liking it. Puzzling. The remnants of this particular bottle were consigned to the sauce. Judgment reserved because a relatively recent bottle of the 2001 gave much pleasure. Next time I'll decant this for an extended period to see whether that makes a difference.
