"Burned" on Snooth
Am in Tokyo for several years now, so tend to view this holiday with particular sentimentality. 10 people for dinner, with staggered arrivals. Tuna and avocado tartare, raw ama-ebi sashimi and a couple of other snacky bits...
loads of black fruit layers with blackberries, plums, and currants with hints of vanilla and oak as well. A little spice and blackpepper on the palate, a long lingering finish and paired terrifically with my steak at...

Decanting is usually a good idea (especially for reds) and it helps to get rid of the sediment as well. If you know that a wine has a lot of sediment before decanting, you can pour it through cheesecloth or a coffee filter...
