Friday, September 15, 2023 - Friday Night Uptown Brown Bagger (R&D's): Deep color, showing much younger than it actually is. Opens with aromas of cedar, black currant, dusty earth and plum. Again, nicely balanced and integrated. Flavors of black fruit dominate the palate, with subtle earth, leather and tobacco qualities mixed in. Finishes with good length. WOTF for a couple of tasters.

This had been quickly double decanted about 2.5 hours before the flight was poured and remained under cork until just before service. An hour in the decanter certainly would not have hurt, hindsight being 20/20. Sadly, our only bottle, as there's at least a few years left at a very high level, if this was a representative bottle.
