Community Tasting Notes (30) Avg Score: 89.9 points

  • Bordeaux Blend tasting (chez moi): 52.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47.5% Merlot
    Deep purple-red
    Pronounced complex aroma intensity with notes of black currant, blackberry, and plum that are joined by hints of earth, leather, and cedar. As the wine opens up, further nuances of violets, licorice, and spice emerge, creating an intriguing tapestry of aromas.
    full-bodied and powerful, with firm yet well-integrated tannins. consistent flavors with the nose, with dark fruits dominating the palate. Black currant, blackberry, and plum are joined by subtle notes of cassis, blueberry, and spice. the acidity is lively and bright, providing a refreshing counterpoint to the richness of the fruit.
    the finish is long and lingering, with hints of dark chocolate, tobacco, and minerality. the tannins remain firm but not astringent, suggesting the wine still has the potential to age gracefully for many years to come.
    can drink now or age further.

  • Cassis, leather and tobacco aromas give this a classically rustic nose. Palate is rounded and persistent with dark fruits and fine tannins. This is further along its development than many other 2010s. It’s drinking well now with a splash decant.

  • Same notes and overall profile from our last tasting 3.5 years ago, only this has dramatically improved and softened up on the palate. Paired with broiled filet. The nose is slightly restrained, but the fruit on the palate is really coming through with about 5+ hours of air. Some good red-fruit streaks now complementing the deep, blue, brambly fruit, and there are some savory hints emerging into the dusty finish. This is drinking well now but will be best over the next decade. Drink 2023-2033. Technical score: 93. Enjoyment score: 93.
