Community Tasting Note

  • Paul S wrote: 94 points

    September 16, 2019 - TNs: Female Burgundy Winemakers Dinner (Yan, National Gallery, Singapore): Still youthful, but this was really nice. The nose was very Gevrey, with a nice earthiness underpinning lovely wafts of red cherry, bacon and a gentle minerality. Lovely stuff. The palate still felt a little tight, but was already quite delicious. Here were powerful layers of dark cherries and wild berries playing against a solid backdrop of earth, mineral and a little spiciness - beautiful stuff. There was still quite a bit of solid 2005 structure to it though, with fine but still chewy tannins and juicy acidity leading the way into a lovely full finish that just went on and on. Beautiful stuff, and will get better with time as it softens and fans out. Lovely.
