Community Tasting Note

Saturday, August 10, 2013 - Opened immediately after a '98 proved corked. This bottle was everything I expect from LdH: a beautiful nose featuring bright fruit but with the added complexity of the elevage; a dancer's grace on the tongue; a strong but lean palate with a core of red fruit.

That's it. A general agreement says that Bosconia is ready before Tondonia. It's of common sense. By, according with your kind TN, why Bosconia is having better scores than Tondonia in an extraordinary vintage as 2001 is?
Some of we are talking about purity versus mixtures, about keeping tradition vs. introducing innovations, about same origin of the fruit vs. diversity. We prefer to be wrong cause we love LdH.
Considering that Il will be patient enough, my only bottle will be ready in 2021.
Cheers,
