Community Tasting Note

eboracum Likes this wine:

Sunday, April 21, 2019 - I chose a couple of Hermitage to accompany some delicious Easter lamb, the other being a Chave 97. I was quite expecting this bottle from a less well known producer, which I had forgotten at the bottom of a rack, to be well over the hill but it was singing with full throat in an elderly but healthy manner. It was mediums/full bodied with dark mature fruit slightly rose petal infused, some old book and forest floor notes, velvety texture, round dark undertow and decent length. I returned to drink the remains at the bottom of the bottle after the vibrant Chave and it was by no means overshadowed. Very good.
