Community Tasting Note

Janda_42 Does not like this wine:

Monday, September 18, 2023 - On the nose: Slate, herbs, strawberries.

On the palate: Strawberry, cream, white-cake, herbs.

On the finish: Slightly bitter, strawberry.

There was something odd about this bottle that I can’t quite put my finger on. All the expected flavors are present, but over all of it something is off. There is a taste of maybe vomit or chlorine. It doesn’t fit the usual descriptions of TCA taint, so I’m not sure if this flavor is a natural part of the wine’s flavor, or some other kind of fault.

Edit:
Returning to the wine on a second day: the off flavor, though still quite present on the nose, has almost entirely disappeared on the palate. The wine was quite enjoyable today with some cheese and crackers.
