Community Tasting Note

Saturday, November 25, 2023 - 4th Saturday Group: Uptown Brown Bag (V&M's): Blind. Opens with an elegant perfumed floral quality, almost potpourri-like. Notes of black fruit, plum and chocolate are apparent under the floral notes. Full-bodied, with medium tannin and flavors of plum, espresso powder, black fruit and chocolate. Finishes with good length. Balanced.

I suspected this might be our bottle as it seemed a touch older, but as I switched bottles I wasn't entirely sure. This had been double decanted off its sediment three hours before the flight was poured. Drinking well, but there's no need to rush here. Drink now with a bit of air or hold through 2028+.
