Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 27, 2021 - Extremely buttery nose.

Massive on the palate on nuts, the attack is straightforward.
The juice is dense, the hazelnut will gain the upper hand with aeration. Moreover, aeration will have a decisive effect on the wine, but in a rather negative way.
The lack of tension was noticeable from the start, and will intensify. The wine tends to become clumsy and this problem of balance will influence the length of the wine. If the finish is like the attack, massive and buttery, the length is pretty ordinary.

It's good but far from transcendent considering the pedigree. I would even say that this bottle seems to have already passed its peak given its evolution over the tasting.
