Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, January 20, 2021 - Perfect bottle with in neck fill. Pnp at home. I only rarely get to drink a Durfort Vivens. This 95 is a decent wine and would not rate it as harshly as the most recent reviewer but it is certainly a wine already on a gentle downward slope. Clear garnet, transparent rim but no browning. Fairly muted aromatics with forest floor, cedar and a remaining touch of fruit. Lacking concentration and refinement on the palate while the sandy, medium (-) tannins and the acidity are still alive and kicking. A wine that works hence better with a meal than on its own at this stage. Short finish. A somewhat rustic old school Bdx and doubt it was ever a great wine but will for sure not improve from here so drink up.
