Mz94, opened 23:30 the night before, decanted 07:45: dark dark red, 80% opaque. Mid-weight, big maraschino cherries, and a crisp bitterness throughout. Liked. Good of itself, and adjusted for modern reputation of house, very good.jdaw1 wrote: ↑01:18 Tue 26 Mar 2024Ditto my Warre cork, but Martinez and Noval came clean. All three opened 23:30.Alex Bridgeman wrote: ↑20:17 Mon 25 Mar 2024I just hate 1990s corks. Bloody Fonseca cork exploded into tiny fragments, even after being loosened with the JDAW cork impeller.
Edit: N, W, Mz — all decanted 07:45.
