Community Tasting Note

89 Points

Sunday, November 8, 2009 - Old, smells like a chai in Bordeaux. Not bad though - the fruit that is left (not much) has a little sweetness to it, maybe a little tobacco. Medium-length finish during which you can tell that at one time this wine had some complexity to it, though now you have merely hints at past pleasures. Starting to think there are only a few wines left from the '85 Bordeaux vintage that are not in decline. Sadly, this isn't one of them.
