Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, August 4, 2010 - Tasted this wine along a rather long period of time:
Right after opening the bottle, hints of caramel and earthiness ruled in the nose. The taste was somewhat tight and spicy, tight tannins. After 2 hrs of decanting, the tannins became more round, but the taste started to get more spicy, vinegary. The taste followed the pickles.
On the following day, after some 20 hrs from the opening, the wine had opened up even more; the vinegar and spicy attack was gone and the earthiness stepped in front. The wine improved significantly, and for this reason, the wine truly showed its greatness via complexity. Need to try this again, with some good veal stew perhaps.
