Community Tasting Note

• Keith Levenberg Likes this wine: 95 points

  January 23, 2019 - Add one to the very short list of producers that managed to make great wine in 1997. This is showing beautifully and nothing about it suggests it came from an extreme year, much less a year which has long been toast from most addresses. This is in a much fresher state even than the successes I've had (mostly Jadot), as this still has vibrant red-berry fruit presented in a plush and mouthfilling form. The fruit standing alone easily tastes a decade younger than it is, but it has that dense, bloodlike saturation that reflects the payoff of bottle age, with the structure nicely melted in.
