Community Tasting Note

90 Points
Wednesday, October 31, 2018 - At first it felt a bit dead in the glass despite two hours in a decanter, but after Another 30 minutes it starts to Wake up, but with mostly dark fruits and oak. Not very Classic at all.
On the palate I found mostly sweet dark berries, and tobacco. More power than finesse, but not clumsy at all. This is a wine that needs a few more years in the bottle to settle down completely, but it is obviously still a great wine. But not one to categorize as a "Classic bordeaux".
