Community Tasting Note

StevenM Likes this wine:

Thursday, November 22, 2018 - The cork was saturated but not leaking; had a subtle hint of corking or brett, but the fruit was abundant and stood strong above. This wine has remained richly fruity and structured with the tannins now only detectable in the finish. Not much complexity remains, mostly the juicy and acidic fruits. The medium finish is rewarding, with the fruit giving way to some subtle spices (vanilla, cinnamon, clove) and the remaining tannins to dry the cheeks! Most definitely past its prime, but was fun at Thanksgiving dinner as a style contrast next to a 1995 Chateau Prieure-Lichine (Margaux)!
