Community Tasting Note

djhammond Likes this wine:

Saturday, November 30, 2019 - This is drinking perfectly now, but contrary to some other reviews I feel this really does need at least 3 hours in the decanter, and ideally time in the glass to really come alive. This is a powerhouse of left bank Bordeaux, and embodies everything of a top notch mature wine. The nose is deep and lingering with old leather, blackcurrant and plum. The palate displays full secondary and tertiary characteristics, with an exceptional depth and perfect balance and acidity. Likewise the finish is outstanding and pushes 60 seconds. This is at its optimum level, but has a structure to stay here for the next couple of decades, and after the Lynch Bages is probably the wine of the vintage.
