Community Tasting Note

Saturday, January 30, 2021 - What a lovely surprise. I got this bottle as a gift about 12 years ago. I was in the mood for a mature Bordeaux and saw the positive notes on this bottle on Cellartracker and decided to try it. The smell was georgeus from the start and after about 20 minutes it really opened up. Very dark colour and quite dense and with very distinct forresty and earthy notes (smelled just like the shitake mushrooms I was cutting for the risotto). Perfectly mature now. Balanced and elegant with a very long and concentrated taste. Distinctly Bordeaux but actually almost more left-bank than right - perhaps the concentration is what takes at least my thoughts a bit away from St. Emilion.
