Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Sunday, April 23, 2017 - In great shape at age 15. Gorgeous dark ruby with a brilliant red rim. Nary a sign of age. Amazing viscosity as well, with big red legs. Excellent nose of iron, lead pencil, and mulberry. Wow! Super smooth, super sleek in the mouth, with medium body and richly fruited. This is one incredibly sexy wine, right at its peak of drink ability. All tannins are resolved, but nothing suggests any decline. Just a gorgeous, gorgeous wine. Finishes in a suave, sophisticated fashion. I haven't tasted many Bordeaux from this vintage, but this is certainly the best of the lot. 5-14-17-9: 95/100.
