Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, December 25, 2018 - We drank a comparison vertical of the 1989 and 1990 Calon Segur. The '90 was clearly the better of the two wines. The 1989 was beautiful in color - no loss of clarity or the beautiful dark red of a claret. The nose was outstanding. first taste after uncorking the 1989 was of the terroir.
I decanted toe 1989 and 1990 for about 2 hrs and it did not lose any body or flavor.
The 1990 was deeper in color than the 1989 and had more tannin left and body. A beautiful bottle - we drank it after the 1989. Clearly the better of the two.
