Community Tasting Note

  • brooklynguy wrote: flawed

    July 3, 2014 - Very strange. Smells and tastes like dried raisins, roasted, flawed. But I bought it on release and stored it at a "professional" facility. No signs of heat damage. Perhaps the wine simply oxidized. Sad, anyway. I don't think this is representative of the wine.

    7/4/14, 9:08 AM - I've run across a repulsive 'dried raisin' thing in two recent bottles of 2005 Vissoux Moulin; tastes atrocious; but the following day, the wine was superb. So I surmise it's an odd developmental phase. May be different from what you encountered, naturally.
