Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, October 13, 2021 - -- double-decanted 3.5 hrs before first taste --

NOSE: perfumed; a touch cracker-y (oak?); a bit high toned; hint of bitter orange peel; moderately expressive --- the air time did help it open somewhat, as it was quite closed upon opening.

BODY: medium-light bodied.

TASTE: oaky; tannic; smooth red fruits; pointless to buy for drinking today --- this needs lots of time to absorb the oak and develop complexity --- although the air time did help this somewhat, it still never got to a point where I thought, "Yeah, not necessarily a bad idea to open this now." --- just don't. Strong Hold recommendation.
