2003 Clos Les Lunelles

Community Tasting Note

Does not like this wine:

Sunday, April 18, 2021 - Over the hill. Oxidative flavor profile. Mostly secondary nose menthol burning off in 20 minutes leaving slight cassis, licorice, lead pencil, and then with only it sitting in my glass for 15 minutes, turning to prunes. Palate with faded fruit, oddly disproportionate with a bloated mouthfeel from the high alcohol and shallow depth of flavor, mostly noticing the almost burnt woody tannins.

This was my only bottle - obtained from Winebid. Perhaps a storage issue, but I know I was pushing it with what CTs were already experiencing recently and won't ever truly know where it's supposed to be in its drinking window cuz I won't be trying it again.
