Community Tasting Notes 4

    July 25, 2023 - Burg/Bordeaux Dinner with BYO Gang (The Kongsee): Medium garnet, with significant browning and fading on edges. Nose exhibiting pepper, cloves, dried grass, hint of dried flower, and dried cranberry and dates. Tannins still giving a bite, while having a rather lean mouthfeel, somewhat hollow in fact, and with mostly tertiary peppery meaty flavours, and dried grass, and fruits seem to be nearly completely missing. A bottle that has seen better days in the last decade, but definitely too old now

    July 23, 2016 - Roll of the dice on a top shoulder bottle. 70's Lalande has a good reputation, even if this vintage was not much to write home about. As soon as I put my nose to the glass this was easily identified as cork failure. Completely maderized with Balsamic notes.

    Much better than expected for this vintage

    August 12, 1985 - Red. Attractive light fruity bouquet with some oak. Soft wine with fresh acidity and a long aftertaste. Has class, but is light bodied. Now at, or just past its peak although I can imagine it will stay in this stage for several years.
