Community Tasting Notes 4

March 9, 2024 - Medium-bodied with a core of tobacco, citrus, currants, flowers, and red plums. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, forward, and light on its feet with a crisp, chewy, red plum, and red currant, dusty finish. Drink from 2024-2034.

June 25, 2022 - (90-92 vvPunkte) 30% Neuholz, 80% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot. Dunkles Rubinrot. Die Nase springt aus dem Glas, Cassis und Brombeeren, super expressiv. Im Gaumen mit straffem Strukturkorsett und einer knackigen Frucht, der Wein zeigt reife, fein verwobene Tannine, noch jugendlich, jedoch von guter Qualität. Im Abgang mit guter Länge und viel knackiger Cassisfrucht im Finale. Wird früh Spass machen, kann reifen. 2026-2040 (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château Ducru-Beaucaillou) vvWine.ch

May 20, 2022 - Flowers and black raspberry aromas show up with ease in the perfume. On the palate, the medium-bodied wine is soft, forward, sweet and fresh. The wine finishes with a touch of dark chocolate and red plums in the endnote. Drink from 2023-2032. 89-91

April 26, 2022 - En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Earthy with plums, blackcurrant, polished oak, and a slight red currant underpin as well as some herbaceous, green notes which become increasingly dominant with time in the glass. The fruit proves a little plump on the palate but a wave of unwieldy, woody, chalky tannins drown this and leaves the impression of sucking a stave on the finish. Nah
