Community Tasting Note

Saturday, August 22, 2015 - Folks, this is a wonderful left bank 1998. Just entering maturity, you could not ask for more, especially considering the current price. I could whiff the nose all night long. Wonderful notes of faint green pepper, cedar, graphite, cassis, tobacco, and pencil that would do a Pauillac proud. Long, rich palate with everything above, plus intense fruit and a finish that lasted close to 45 seconds. I have always reckoned that Las Cases (and Ducru) should be elevated to first growth status, and this "average" year example only confirms my mindset. 95+ Pts
