Sunday, May 23, 2021 - My last bottle .... five years since uncorking its sibling ...
And yes ... this is what aged Bordeaux wine should taste like ... gracefully sliding down to ends unavoidable end.
Clearly tertiary, but boy - how this swirls around in the glass. No longer a hefty young lass, but a classy woman.
On the nose, simply exquisite ... cedar, herbal, tobacco, old library books, dusty room with a huge fireplace.
On the pallet, clearly aged, graceful, complex, no tannins left, fully integrated, mushrooms.
Finish is still quite long at this stage, it lingers around your mouth for quite some time.
Clearly, no need for longer keeping this in your cellars, believe only downhill from now on for this vintage - drink up !
