Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 4, 2018 - Another bottle from my auction purchase a dozen years ago or so. Very good color (dark purple)/mature nose (black cherry, some oak, some leather)/rich mouthfeel, almost portlike/good finish with lingering texture. This is so rich that it might become tiresome after two glasses. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: I've stopped giving scores on a "100-point scale" as I've become less convinced that they can be meaningful to others. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. I consider this notable+ when considering quality, age, and price.
