Community Tasting Note

  • kr522 wrote: 95 points

    September 25, 2016 - looking back at my last tasting notes from 4 years ago, i could copy and paste with one difference - the tannins have softened and the great potential of this wine is finally emerging.

    concentrated plum, tobacco, excellent acidity and still a mammoth frame. This (conceivably) could keep improving but it's very good now

    As with all 86s I recommend a solid decant time....but this requires less than LLC and Mouton in my experience
