Community Tasting Note

  • mmcdds Likes this wine: 94 points

    September 15, 2014 - This is my first taste of the '05 since 2012 and this has fleshed out nicely and has shed a lot of its baby fat since then. Tonight this is a classic Vieux Telegraphe with dark brooding flavors of cassis and plum. Tobacco, leather and coffee notes with lots of garrigue show up on the mid palate and are followed by fairly aggressive tannins on the longish finish. With a traditional old world style, this is quite nice right now with a couple of hours of double decanting.
