Community Tasting Note

  January 5, 2020 - Well, this is just spectacular even this young. Having previously tasted the clos du bourg demi-sec, I was looking forward to this. Young, and not yet close to ready, still easy to find grapefruit, pear, honey, lemon, white flowers, citrus, and lots of tropical and stone fruits. Sweet, but not cloying, maybe even a bit dryer than expected, this is a big, rich, full, concentrated, and balanced wine. So good now, makes wish you could somehow fast forward 50 years to see what it will become. Imo this represents an incredible qpr and I think taking advantage of that to be able to watch the evolution is money perhaps better spent than a lot of the wine I buy. Probably biased to the sweeter wines as 20% of my cellar is either port or sauterne.
