Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Sunday, December 25, 2005 - Dark red. Still young but open for business straight out of the bottle. Nice mineral and red berry smell some pencil shavings coming through already. After taking the first sip I had to walk back to the bottle to see whether I opend the wrong vintage by accident, but no its a 1997! Wow what a wine. No hurry to open this although a top-notch Lafite with coffee, plum and mineral notes. But then again this nose!!! Have to get more of this especially at the price it is offered at the moment.
