Community Tasting Note

Thursday, May 17, 2007 - Umm, whoops... So I was in a big hurry and late for dinner with friends. I grabbed a couple of bottles to bring out to dinner and didn't pay enough attention to the label. I was thinking I had snagged a regular 1990 Beaucastel and didn't notice it was a Hommage until after the wine was open at the restaurant. (Upon tasting I was surprised by the intensity and lack of brett.) What a dumbass I am...

Anyway, this is a remarkable wine that is a mere infant. Incredible depth and purity. A real treasure. Definitely a little sweet with incredible structure. Nicely floral on the nose. Thick, meaty and focused on the palate. No heaviness at all despite the remarkable concentration.
