Community Tasting Note

Thursday, April 30, 2009 - Gold. This is showing baked apple and spices on the nose, the oak is very clearly still present in the aromas. On the palate, it is fatter and rounder than I expected, a pretty big mouthful of wine, without the cut and definition I've found in Lamy's other wines (even the '05 Frionnes). Is it baby fat that will reveal a core of structure, or is it just a big wine? It never tends into flabbiness, so I'm inclined to hope it's the former. There's certainly enough dry extract to allow this to age for some years, and it should be allowed to do so. Too primary now.
