Community Tasting Note

  • sung251 Likes this wine: 92 points

    December 5, 2019 - Had this at a blind tasting. Despite being a baby it was drinking surprisingly well. Compared to the 2015 the reduction of oak is very easily noted and in my opinion the wine comes off as considerably more balanced. There are notes dark fruits and vanilla but at no point does the wine come off as over bearing or over the top. I am personally really happy with the direction the chateau has taken with this wine and I hope they continue this trend in the future. 92 for now, can probably get 2-3 extra points with age. Would try 5 - 10 years later
