Community Tasting Note

• bjecjohnson Likes this wine: 96 points

  September 13, 2020 - Wine was still fairly dark for an old wine (or darker than I would have expected as I don't have much experience with wines over 15 years old). It likely still has another 10 years left in it if kept properly- maybe more. Went really well with six-hour smoked spare ribs. Wine was opened to let it breathe and taste about six hours prior.
  Was going to vacuum seal it, but the cork broke off in the bottle and so I had to decant it to filter out the cork particles. Also opened a 1998 Clos des Papes magnum and both wines were a hit. Was happy to see the La Crau still has some years left.
