Community Tasting Note

    May 8, 2010 - It's certainly turned rather dark for its age. I have two remaining bottles, all showing the same colour. It's developed some interesting nutty madeira notes; not nutty to the extent that the 1991 went if you're familiar with that wine (I was hoping this would evolve the same way) but still hazelnut and caramel. it went remarkably well with a chocolate dessert, which I wouldn't have expected from a Semillon. I don't agree with the other taster's comment on the acidity; I found it to be a little lacking there, but I certainly think this has plenty of life left in it.
