Community Tasting Note

Cheungtp Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 18, 2014 - The 2004 Bellevue Mondotte sports a dark inky / deep purple color profile, giving it a dark profound intrigue. Mesmerizing bouquet filled with ripe black fruits, spice, earth, espresso beans and minerality. Balanced touches on the palate, rich, plush, highly concentrated with blackberry, plum, dark chocolate and tobacco leaves, coupled with good level of acidity keeping it refreshing and juicy. Tannins are plentiful, polished, contains a slight dry edge to it. Satisfying finish with earthy, smoky and chocolaty notes.

This is one of the best 2004s I have tasted thus far, it's still very young. This wine will go places and you can sense the potential from the first sniff. Looking fwd to try it again in maybe 5 years and see what pleasure it will bring.
