Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Monday, September 8, 2014 - Not quite mature yet, but developing very nicely. Drank over the course of three evenings and the last glass was the best. Thick layers of sweet, jammy fruits: strawberry, blackberry, plums, figs, cassis, cedar wood, tobacco and some nice medicinal, herbal notes. The palate follows the nose with full body, good acidity and a long finish. Not very elegant, but a very well made, classical and fully featured Bordeaux with a long, long life ahead.
