Community Tasting Note

Caruso Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 15, 2022 - This bottle was stored in a cellar at temperatures between 15°C (winter) and up to 19°C in a hot summer. So this should be more evolved than perfectly stored bottles. Evolved? This is still developing at a glacial pace if exeptable stored since release. Crimson with no sign of age. Intense nose of bramble, currants, cherries. Maybe some hints of new oak, vanilla, tobacco. On the palate concentrated and still primary but open from the start without decant. Wines like this were impossible to produce two or three decades ago. And, yes, this is not as typical bordeaux as Cru bourgeois was in the last century, but I can't see something wrong with this. Maybe we just have to wait some decades even for Cru bourgois like this to become less primary and less fruit driven. On the palate it is already quite smooth with excellent balance of fruit, acidity and round tannin. Not very complex, but nuanced enough for keeping interesting. 5/12+/16+/9. 2022-2030+ 92+
