Community Tasting Note

Thursday, April 11, 2024 - This cork was soft and wet to within a couple of millimeters of the capsule. Yet it was intact and the wine was magnificent. This wine may need--and will permit--many more years of cellaring to reach full potential, but it showed magnificently tonight, of the present and future. The bouquet alone was myriad: taut cabernet, sour pine smoke, lard. The bouquet has years of maturity ahead. The plate is perfectly balanced but a bit dry and a bit rough. Whether or not this could attain the glycerous smoothness of a top growth remains to be seen. But it is a wonderful expression of a classic Bordeaux. Excellent terroir married to an iconoclastic proprietor.
