Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 11, 2009 - 30 min decant. No bricking - wonderful nose - creamy liquorice nose, mouth - no tannins - sweet, deep fruit, taste hits down the middle of the tongue - no bitterness. White pepper notes - light of touch, stinks of class. Soft - some plum skin, some farmyard way off in the distance. No acidity - this is bang in the window. Rolling this around the tongue you just get roundness - integrated - no astringet tannins, plenty of fruit - needs duck or fillet steak - something less powerful. Soft, sexy, like a classy 45 year old Parisian cougar - although Khamen likens it to feshly tumble-dried towels. I prefer the Cougar comparison. This is at its zenith.
