Community Tasting Note

Saturday, May 17, 2008 - Kdawg's Birthday 80's Bordeaux dinner (Cotes Du Rhone, Chicago, IL): Lighter in color than recent bottles. The palmer exhibited an intoxicating nose of grilled steak, lilac perfume, a slight mocha, and a very attractive underbrush character. In the mouth the wine was much less powerful than previous bottles. It was somewhat disjointed in the mouth with a short finish. When this wine is on it is one of the best of the vintage, sadly this bottle was not and I am finding more and more lack-luster bottles of the 83 palmer.
