Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Sunday, April 4, 2021 - {cork, 14%} Aging, bricking note to the colour. Decanted off a fair amount of sediment. Cork half damp, ullage fine. Nose a bit acetic, leathery. All very tertiary. Palate is very advanced, a bit ‘generic old wine’, with leather and rotting fruit, aged strawberries, maybe. Trembly acidity, faded tannins. Medium weight, with a medium length but not very seductive finish. On this instance, on the downslope.
