Community Tasting Note

Michael Baskett Likes this wine:

Monday, January 8, 2018 - Dark purple rim, opaque.
Nose: Cabernet, Merlot hidden in the background. Slight cheesy scent, beef blood, plum, celery, some scent I can't quite put a name on, yet reminds me of a nice beef broth/vegetable soup/squid ink soup/Italian wedding soup with celery, carrots and ample beef stock. I just can't name it. Frankly I'm a bit surprised at how well developed this is compared to the 2005 Chateau Pavie I just put into my notes a few minutes ago. Far better developed and much more pleasing at this date. More balanced and integrated than the Pavie.
Taste: Cabernet at a most certain developmental stage, if you know what I mean. Cabernet, celery, cranberry sauce and just a hint of beef blood in the background.
