Community Tasting Note

  June 22, 2019 - This wine was so delicious! Enjoyed at dinner so I didn't take technical notes, but I cannot imagine a better red burgundy. Surprisingly dark for a Truchot; bottle opened a half hour before pouring, but no decanting. The wine had been standing up for a week, but there was surprisingly little sediment. Wonderful bouquet. On entry, full of the sweet pinot fruit that is so unique to Truchot. Medium weight in the mouth, more than typical for Truchot. Silky smooth. Fabulous long finish that made you want to take another sip. I probably enjoyed this as much as any burgundy I've ever had. Just a great, great wine. If I had to guess,I'd say it's at or near peak now (how could it get any better?), but showed no signs of age and will last another 10 years.
