Community Tasting Note

• kevinpatrick Likes this wine: 97 points

  February 13, 2020 - Decanted ~1.5 hours before sampling. A brilliant vintage and a wine that hit on all the rights notes for vintage, pedigree and style. Immediately out of the glass the classic Bordeaux nose shined; rustic with wafts of fresh pencil shavings, at 30 years old there clearly was a lot of life packed into this bottle. Wonderfully mature notes of blackcurrant mixed with sprinkles of plum were divine, On the mouthfeel, this full-bodied wine has the softest of leather, gently resolved tannins and a woodsy signature Pauillac style. Just a joy of a wine in full today with plenty of life for years to come.
