Community Tasting Note

• Burgundy Al wrote: 92 points

  January 4, 2020 - Another Saturday at Chevalier...Mostly Blind 2010 (Chicago IL): Tasted double blind. Clearly Bordeaux with ripe black currant and cassis, supported with dark chocolate and espresso. Seemed so Merlot that I thought this Right Bank. Rich and effusive start, similarly enticing finish, just somewhat tannic in the middle right now. Better 2030-.

  1/5/20, 5:02 AM - The key to this wine is decanting, Al. It needs at least 5 hours of air to open and smooth out. I wonder if there was any announcement as to how long the wines were open?
