Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Sunday, June 12, 2016 - 6th of 12 (+6 mags), decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, previous notes since 04 fine or better, now entering plateau of maturity,, brown tinge on rim, cassis tending to mulberry, tertiary aromas developing, and fruit just beginning to lose former energy, flavours nevertheless elegant, persistent and attractive and very much what I look for in fine claret, no rush but no particular reason to keep as near its best I suspect now. Just shaded off my top previous mark on loosening grip! F+ (18).
