Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 3, 2024 - Cork was a mess, fill just at neck. Had low expectations.

Colour- pale ruby, like old burgundy.

Nose initially a bit muted. Does this really need a decant? Decided not to as I was scared of fragility. It really did develop with each glass drank slowly over 2 hours. The high proportion cinsault really showing some strawberry red fruit, more so than expected for a wine this age. Lots of tertiary, leather, almonds and leaves. Wine showed freshness and no signs of fading. I have two more bottles which look in better condition than this one and I'll be in no rush to drink those.
