Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, April 22, 2015 - Cheval Blanc and D'Yquem dinner with Pierre Lurton and Bernard Burtschy (Taberna del Alabardero, Washington D.C.): It is interesting to compare with the 10 as they mimic the vintage characters of the red. The 10 is quite precise and structured where the 09 is rounder. Plain cotton candy, banana, pear, bubble gum, a hint of lanoline and mineral. Excellent concentration, sweet yellow and white fruit driven palate impression, medium to slightly low acidity, strong presence of mineral and clean cool and sweet finish. Quite fresh and cool despite the residual sugar and slightly lacking acidity.
