Community Tasting Note

96 Points

Tuesday, January 12, 2021 - A flamboyantly gorgeous wine, now at its absolute peak. Blueberries, sweet plums, cherries, a hint of tangerine, flowers, tobacco, tar, vanilla, nutmeg, then a burst of chocolate and mint, leading into a lovely long aftertaste with ripe raspberries at the end. Should stay wonderful for a few more years, but don't wait! (I tasted this wine from several different glasses, and it was at its best, by a surprisingly wide margin, tasted from a generic Burgundy glass.)
