Community Tasting Note

vagrantone Likes this wine:

Friday, December 20, 2019 - A great showing for this vintage and the chateau.
High shoulder level fill and a cork in decent condition.
Decanted about one hour prior to dinner.
Minimal browning; rather impressive hue and intensity.
Classic St Julien at its best; balancing the power of Pauillac with the elegance of Margaux. Still remnants of tannin but of very high quality of ripeness. Enough acidity to provide great balance. THe nose with all classic elements of tobacco, gravel, cigarbox and cedar were mesmerizing; fantastic intensity.
This wine must have been stored in a great cellar.
could age for another decade...
