Community Tasting Note

Thursday, August 21, 2014 - Was planned as the month's highlight, but this btl made a face plant. Hope it isn't representative for this wine.

Nose took a while to open up. Not worth the wait: Bdx earth, crayons, chalk, black olives gone slightly bad and a small dose of Brett.
In the mouth, there is no balance: acids take over completely and even if there are several very fine aromas, there is something missing here.

Far from worth the money.
After my case of 2008, I've stopped buying LLC. Even if I usually love their restrained aristocratic stiff upper lips.
Not scoring this one, but if I did, it would be somewhere around 81.
Wife refused to drink more than small sip: "bacterial cheese" she said.
I gave up after one glass. Became wine-ice-cubes for cooking instead.
