Community Tasting Note

  September 27, 2014 - From half a bottle and at the end of a long wine dinner so palate fatigue played a role but it didn't feel right , a few bitter notes and altogether not right. We believe having tried this before ( Papies 95) that it is not characteristic of the wine and hence no rating here but very worried to find this level of bottle variation.

Is it possible that the size has played a role in this? To be honest, in general I have not found big differences between different size formats of a certain wine, only a slightly more rapid pace of evolution for the smaller ones.
