Community Tasting Note

guchl Likes this wine:

Friday, May 17, 2013 - Picked this bottle up way on sale... probably way past its prime but what the heck, the price was right.

This was awesome! Lots of funk on opening, though after an hour in the decanter and most of that blew off and fruit emerged.

Nose is both plums and prunes, plus a bit of tart pomegranate; loamy earth, plus a hint of herbs and warm spices.

palate has similar profile to nose, nice acid backbone, round mouthfeel. medium long finish.

had with flank steak.

don't know what this was like in its youth, but I would say that it would still be lovely for a year... maybe two.
