Community Tasting Note

  • CALCABLOVER Likes this wine: 97 points

    March 2, 2020 - Double decanted for 2 hours then back to rinsed bottle to restaurant. Dark purple. Classic Bordeaux nose with tertiary notes. Taste, great complexity. Bouquet and taste were both haunting.
    Stored since release, ordered thru Bordeaux future. Well worth the effort and patience.
    Had it with 1990 Lagrange from a very generous friend. They were similar in taste and bouquet but the the LB was a notch above.

    3/4/20, 3:04 AM - Thank you for sharing your note! I made a similar experience with LB 00 vs Gruaud-Larose 00. The aromatics were similar, but structurally the LB was superior, and will outclass the GR in the mid-term.
