Community Tasting Note

    November 23, 2014 - Checking in on this now. Different beast than upon release, now showing more vintage like characteristics. PnP has it being jammy with a hint of prune on the palate. Will wait before making a call.

    OK. 1-2 hours in, this becomes something else. Corduroy tannins speak of longevity (thought not as long as some vintages of LVD), some nice garrigue blends in with the dark fruit on the nose. The jammy fruit is gone. Yeah, the bottle might be more brawny than one normally thinks of from Donjon, but it is just good. This is an exceptionally nice bottle of CDP.
