Community Tasting Note

NostraBacchus Likes this wine:

Wednesday, November 2, 2022 - Tasted in a arrivage tasting of all DRC 2019. Overall, the 2019s DRC are beautifully perfumed, very ripe wines, but they also carry a nice vein of acidity that is making them brighter and fresh. The bottles show incredible class, but also a certain ripeness that might be something that needs getting used to for purists. I thought that the terroir was showing beautifully, despite the ripeness of the year. The wines seemeed very different and true to their cru, especially at the beginning of the tasting and again with quite some air. In between the differences were just a tiny bit muddled.
Drank alone, I might have rated it even higher, but this really suffered from being a „very good wine“ surrounded by epic bottles. Beautifully perfumed, seductive and sexy, this is showing explosive notes of Vosne spices, dark cherries, ripe darker berries, some new leather and some dark chocolate too. Medium-full bodied, but lacked the depth of some of the other wines, medium-high acidity and medium+ very silky tannin Very good length. A beautifully seductive and perfumed VR 1er Cru.
