Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Monday, November 25, 2019 - Tasted over 3 hrs
-med red minimal clearing
-fragrant sweet violet creamy red fruit
-med+ acidity, med weight sappy exuberant creamy berry earth, moderately long finish has a sweet oak element that culminates with a med bitter tannic streak
-probably on its plateau now, good Volnay typicity with some of the energy if not the minerality typical of the vintage, the wood is not excessive but it adds a sweetness and some extra tannin that together may make this a little awkward after a few more years of bottle age
