Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Monday, August 19, 2019 - From a 375 ml, decanted, and started tasting right away. Smooth and classy, great red fruit and balanced oak. This is very accessible now, consistent with my previous note. Definitely improved with time in the decanter, after an hour the leather and oak intensified.

I corrected my tasting notes. These demis I got en primeur. I bought 12 based on the early CT reviews, to build anticipation for the 750s to be opened later.
