Community Tasting Note

Monday, September 20, 2010 - From Half-Bottle: The waitress popped the cork, sniffed it and frowned. Uh oh... At first, we thought it was slightly, every-so-teasingly slightly corked. But no, it was just funky. Really, really funky. So funky, that I took the decanter it was in, covered the top, and shook it up to make that dirty thing air out. To say I got weird looks from our neighbors is putting it mildly. Still, the funk would come and go, teasing us but then fading away and allowing the big, earthy black fruits to kick in, with leather and meat entertwined within. When the quail dish with foie gras arrived, the fruit perked up and joined us for dinner, but that dirty thing stayed just within reach. As they say, there are only good bottles, and this wasn't one of them. OK but not great.
