My son turned 21 and wanted to open one of his bottles!
He's smart and saved the more renowned ones.
Threw off a lot of sentiment for a 21 year old.... and very dark and brooding. Took a sip and alls well so far.

Happy belated birthday to him. I second asking when he'll post his TN.

He's not ready to post a TN--which is understandable. He did take notes on a scorecard, with a lot of my influence I am sure as we discussed. Here are his impressions:

I like that score card, can that template be downloaded from somewhere?
He did a great job filling it out and probably an accurate score? Never had that port.

Sure. I made a couple for Rubies and one for Tawnies. PM me your email and I'll send over all. All EXCEL based.

I love that scorecard. You posted it in the thread on How to Write a TN that someone made after I asked a couple years ago.
