Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Friday, June 15, 2018 - More traditional than modern and better than the 2006 and the 2008, even if the charachter of the wine is a bit weak.
Good fruit, a bit old world charm, but not as good Cabernet franc as the 2006, but also a lot less oak.
92-93 pts. Third vintage from this producer and so far I'm not very convinced.
Decanted 30-60 minutes before dinner and then consumed the wine over 2-3 hours.
