Community Tasting Note

Friday, May 2, 2014 - Bordeaux 2009 vs. 2010 - Check in on 50 well known Chateaux: Black core with purple rim. Just when you thought the 09 is the peak of brutality comes this monster. Aroma profile is a bit different. Reserved nose of blue fruit, meat, forest, tar and some OZ Shiraz notes of torrefaction (Torbreck Run Rig comes to my mind). On the palate extremely concentrated with again tannins on the drying side, aromas also need coaxing. There is even an ever so slight oxidative side, just like the 09. Again, it will be interesting to see what this will turn into. 95? To my surprise the group ratet this very high as well. (WOTN #5, Group Score 97.6/RP98)
