Community Tasting Note

    March 18, 2024 - Tasted vintage 2001 regularly since 8 years ago as it is clearly one of my all time favorites - every time I have tasted it, it is worth 98 to 98++. This time it was an experiment: Poured from a bottle which I coravined first time 6 years ago. Since then coravined 2 times further before today, last time 1½ years ago with only 1/3 left in the bottle. Despite that the bottle was still outstanding today. That is impressive but of course also influenced by the fact that this is a wine with both high acidity and high sugar level. Not quite at same level as I remember form "fresh bottles", but nevertheless outstanding. It would not be fair rating it officially on cellartracker, but I rated this coravine version 97. I can also reveal that 1½ years ago when I tasted the coaravined bottle last time it was not affected by the coravine (at that time the bottle was 2/3 full)
