Community Tasting Note

  • Vinosus wrote: flawed

    September 20, 2009 - Third of 5 Hermitages. First sniff: Faded/aged. With a lot of sniffing nice, round and sweet with a oily-floral note. One the palate, it was totally flat. Scalped or corked? The others who had drunk it earlier thought it was corked, though I did not pick up TCA. Later, there was fruit and a chemical powdered detergent smell. Cork was pristine. Major disappointment as we very much enjoyed this wine about a year ago. I'll have to bring two bottles next time, as insurance.
