Not shockingly, this needed a sec to blow off some sulfur but was more structured than I excepted — 3 years ago
I was thrilled that my last bottle of Clos Pepe was excellent. I opened and tasted, it seemed pretty good so I did not decant but put in an aerator. At dinner it had a great nose of cedar, black cherries, cola and spice. The taste was dark plums and other dark fruits. The finish was long and very smooth. I was going to save a bit to see how it would have been the next day but drank it all but did notice the finish being not as smooth at the end. Happy I did not decant thinking now I may have missed the best part.
A lot of history will Clos Pepe and a odd connection with Paterson, NJ that started it all. I’ve never been disappointed with their PN’s and some of their oddities including Grappa. — 4 months ago

Strawberry and mineral aromas, rich on the palate with some soft acidity, strawberry, and minerals. Yum!! — a month ago
