Community Tasting Notes 2

December 16, 2023 - Dennis and Caroline holiday wine tasting. Let me start by stating that I love old wine. I love their unique flavors present only in old wine. Unlike anything in the food industry. Both slightly rotted and slightly sweet the Chateau Kirwan was fabulous. Clearly past it's best days the wine possesses a melancholy that is so wonderful to me. Nearly transparent in the glass, it was stunning.

July 25, 1989 - Intense and fragrant, lovely fruit (raspberry, blackcurrant), floral, spicy (clove, thyme), nice oak, complex; elegance and souplesse, juicy and racy, harmonious, très Margaux, adequate concentration, good length. The best 1980 so far, drinking beautifully.
