Community Tasting Note

  December 26, 2023 - Cellared. First bottle I’ve opened from the stash. Absolutely was absolutely what I was hoping for from this bottle. Dark, black, inky purple/maroon to the eye. Modest legs on the glass. On the nose, blackberries, blackcurrants, tobacco, forest floor, green pepper. On the palate, an assault of perfectly ripe fruit and acid. Tannins are superfine, and alcohol hardly perceptible. Drinking beautifully already. This is sooooo much better than the 2009 Pontet Canet that we opened for the first time a few days ago. I look forward to continuing to sample the stash over the coming decades.
