Community Tasting Note

Carl Thoma Likes this wine:

Sunday, November 22, 2020 - Color was good and a live. It took three hours to open up. I have tasting some similar aged Bordeaux (not the big 5) and it will go toe to toe. Wines in Napa in 1985 where made in a different style. Even JP has changed. 12.5%. Nothing is in your face so need to focus to appreciate just how good this wine is 35 years later. It has aged much better than most of us.
Aroma and taste are more to non-fruit. Name it and you can imagine it is there. Finest is pleasant no standout flavors. You like it for the tannins and acidity being in balance. It is not getting better. Perfect storage since purchase as in 55 degrees and similar humidity.
