Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Saturday, February 8, 2014 - Nice ripeness, sweetness, tobacco. Creamy texture. Long finale.

Addition: I always try to save a third of the bottle to study the life cycle of a wine after opening the bottle. This one got a lot better after some hours (in the end even somewhere around 94-95). Unlike some new Pape Clement (all postmodern high-tech wines that are perfect in the beginning and then fade away), the older ones obviously have a more typical life cycle.
