Community Tasting Note

StefanAkiko Likes this wine:

Friday, November 17, 2023 - Troplong Mondot: 1959-2012 (Stockholm, Sweden): Semi-blind (knew which 17 vintages that were being served).

Dark colour.
Starts out anonymously. Especially in the company!
In the mouth: Oh, it's a racehorse! Feels completely unredeemed and a bit linear (in the company). Tastes like a simpler vintage but is pure, beautiful and elegant. The intensity of this wine is enticing. Has that tar-cassis-tobacco that is exactly what the better left bank Bdx wines develop in better years.

My guess: 1998
