Community Tasting Note

Sunday, January 3, 2010 - I knew this was too young, but I wanted to try it anyway. It was unpleasant on opening. Raw, rough, alcoholic and overly tannic. I decanted it for a while and then back in the bottle for Day 2. Much more reasonable on day 2. A nice combination of black fruits, this is quite a muscular brute. It showed glimpses of complexity and had a velvety texture that was light enough on its feet to not get bogged down. I will certainly wait on my other bottles, but this was instructive to try this young.
