Tasted On 06/14/2011

We didn't decant it but opened an hour before drinking. Definite cigar notes on the nose, and confirmed on the palate, though the traditional red/black fruit was there as well. Quite a serene wine - not in your face at all, and the tannins had softeed very nicely. It had a shorter finish than I would have expected, but mature, ready, well put together, balanced and refined.

A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
