Community Tasting Note

ilee Likes this wine:

Friday, December 11, 2020 - Dinner at home with TH, the girls & 3 Palmers (At home, Hong Kong): Dark ruby color, with amber on the edge. Pleasant if understated bouquet of summer flowers, so very Palmer, with notes of red fruit, old leather and ash. Medium bodied, with fine ripe fruit flavors and still finer tannins that give this wine a sheen of elegance as the finish dances on in the palate. A beautiful wine, but past its prime I think.

This was one of a few treasured bottles I had pushed far into the dark reaches of my wine fridges to lay undisturbed for over 15 years. Perhaps I waited too long? Will drink up the rest.
