Community Tasting Notes 10

  August 1, 2018 - Comme on pourrait s'y attendre, la robe est tuilée. Ouvert le matin pour le soir, le nez est magnifique, envoûtant, de Bordeaux mature. Sous-bois, cigare, encore des fruits, changeant pendant tout le repas, encore plus intense en fin de repas. Malheureusement la bouche trahit l'âge, fluide, légère, une déception par rapport aux promesses du nez. Le vin est sur la pente descendante, seul le nez est le témoin de la splendeur passée ...

  April 7, 2013 - High toned nail varnish and bureau on the nose; light elegant palate - enjoyable but very aged. Tastes of old wood and spice. Antique leather.

  December 12, 2012 - Monthly Tasting Group HWS #074; Bordeaux: St. Julien (By BS): Brown orange color. In the bouquet tea, mocha, coffee, caramel and compost. On the palate the wine is not completely fresh; earthy and a hint of being corked, tea. High amount of acidity and bitterness. Drinkable, but too old. No score.
