Community Tasting Note

87 Points

Saturday, June 8, 2013 - Honeyed golden color, surprisingly pale for the wine's age.
On the nose: honeysuckle, kerosene
On the palate: Old wine taste or what the Germans call "Firne". Quite austere, still surprising amount of acidity -which has kept the wine together. Good wine coming out of a mediocre year; definitively not vibrant anymore if it ever was. More interesting than charming or truly enjoyable. My wife quite liked it; I respect it because of how it carries it's age.
(Unbending like an aristocrat of the old school.)
