Community Tasting Note

90 Points

Monday, June 1, 2009 - Bordeaux 2008 (Bordeaux): The jury is out on this one. In April, it seemed fresher with floral notes infused with deep black fruit aromas and flavors. It showed sap on the palate, and concentration without evident extraction û just the right tannic qualities for the long term, despite a slightly drying finish. But in June, I got more evident extraction of dryer, even harder tannins. Thick and rich on one level, but slightly gum aching on another. Will the ample concentration hold up against the tannins in the long run? 88-92?
