This bottle had a bit of black mold under the foil. Tight cork. Bright- red fruited with a tough of smoke. Smooth tannins. High acid. Drink or hold Great bottle.

Smokey, tobacco, tea leafs and red fruits on the nose. The wine was still very tannic. The nose was indeed better than the palate. The palate was quite lean...drinking well now. With aging, the tannins would probably soften up but I doubt the wine would improve significantly.

Pre Auction Wine Tasting w/ lots of Burgs (NYC): Silky and smooth. Nice cherry and spice. Very good wine.
