Community Tasting Note

On the palate, there's still a good amount of structure, but what dominates is the acidity, with heavy notes of iron, yet the wine feels somehow soft. The acidity led me to 1996 and the iron and the softness to Volnay. Not a bad call, though the earth might haved led me to Corton given how close I was - but who ever calls Corton? A nice wine, especially given how rough 96s are.
