Community Tasting Notes 8

  August 20, 2022 - Aromatisk fullmoden. Har en del av de samme trekkene som Tempier, men dette er selvsagt en simplere vin. I tillegg fremstår den som lysere i frukten.
  
  I munn er tanninene helt nedslipt. Tilbake står en vin som er lettdrikkelig nå. Frukten er sødmefull, men det er også noen kjølige trekk der. Saftig og ganske ukomplisert.
  
  Kul vin som bør drikkes nå og i et par år fremover.

  December 26, 2014 - I love older wines, but this one was well past its prime. Opened (pristine cork indicating that it had been well cellared) and poured into a glass 45 minutes before the first consumption. Little development over the next 45 minutes (2 glasses) and (after recorking) no change 6 hours later. Fading even further on the 2nd night, with little bouquet and some interesting flavours mid-palate. No acidity or finish (disappeared as soon as it was drunk), but leaving the mouth very dry (presumably from lingering tanins, although this isn't immediately obvious). Surely 2 - 4 years past its peak and, whilst not unpleasant, certainly not recommended. Don't be tempted to decant it or keep it.

  February 9, 2014 - Tannins have faded leaving a lovely medium weight drop of wine. Drinking well now but no hurry
