Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 2, 2013 - This wine is still amazing after 47 years. The color was a deep ruby with a slightly rust colored rim. The wine is viscous with long slender fingers. The nose is rich with fig and cinnamon which fades away . There is also a sweet tobacco note with black cherry and a hint of cassis. There is also a rich well worn leather to it as well. The palate confirms the nose. The tannins are rich but smooth and well rounded. The finish is extremely long, giving a nice warmth to the mouth. The mouthfeel is rich and unctuous. The body is smooth and full with silk like texture. I did not feel the need to decant this wine and the tasting confirms this decision. This truly a marvelous and mature example of a fine Pauillac of exemplary pedigree!
