Community Tasting Note

Sunday, February 2, 2020 - Beguiling, soaring aromatics include bacon fat, blackberry, violet, and earth. Crescendo concentration that gains power on the midpalate before an explosive finish that lingers for minutes. Despite the power, there's hardly any weight, and this is made all the more weightless by moderate-high but soft acidity. I often find Côte-Rôtie offers killer aromatics but a less complete palate, I suspect due to the Viognier, but in 1999 this delivers in both. Excellent today but not yet at its peak.
