Community Tasting Note

  • henrygjeffreys Likes this wine:

    November 16, 2016 - This was the ordinary vin rouge made by the monks
    Probably a Cinsault/ Grenache/ Carignan blend. Not BDX like current Ch. Ksara
    Gosh this is good. Herby, spicy nose, a little mushroom, then tobacco and fruit. You can still smell the fruit.
    In the mouth there's lots of gentle sweet fruit, has a great purity about it, there's nothing musty, funky or tired here. Smoky notes and then a long lingering finish.
    This is excellent. Tastes like something very good and old from the Rhone. Hard to believe that it is 56 years old
