Community Tasting Note

Nutty08 Likes this wine:

Sunday, February 24, 2013 - Return to San Anontio (Ducru Vertical); 2/21/2013-2/24/2013 (Monty): A little disappointing given the stellar reputation of this wine. Nose was all dark berries with some vanilla and a little mature dried fruit. Huge coarse (slightly green?) tannins on the palate but plenty of dark fruit with some mature elements. Moderate length, though the tannins were a little oppressive and astringent. Seemed a little less expressive than my last bottle a few years ago. Still very enjoyable in the style of '03 and I think it'll hold together, but not sure those tannins will ever truly resolve. 92-93
