Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 22, 2022 - Tasting with old (and one new) friends (Kitchener, Ontario): Second of two bottles purchased at auction. First bottle was DOA and this was pretty much the same. On popping the cork the wine smells strongly of vinegar, which is not something I often find despite people who sometimes say that old wine turns to vinegar. It pours light garnet with medium plus bricking. The nose is of decaying leaves, old furniture, VA, and the faintest hint of dried berries. The palate actually does show ever so slightly more life with bright medium plus acid and medium minus tannin and kisses of red berries. Given other positive notes I'll chalk this up to bad storage.
