Tuesday, January 31, 2023 - 1998 Burgundy horizontal (Noize): I guess this was pretty much as expected: bare, dry, woody and leathery, giving a 'masculine' feel. That said, there was also a finer, brighter, more mineral edge, although not really any fruit. Long finish that tasted like an Old Fashioned made with a particularly oaky Bourbon such as Woodford Reserve; that's a cocktail I enjoy, but I found the note distracting here. Solid, interesting wine, and good with the food, but glad I didn't have the bottle to myself.
