Community Tasting Note

83 Points

Friday, October 27, 2017 - Nebbiolos, white truffles, Volume II (Chicago, IL): From half bottle, served double blind (in a flight of 2003 Sauternes). A huge disappointment at the reveal. This tasted really dirty and a bit oxidized (though it had been bought at release by the owner and stored properly since). I'm really not sure what happened here. This showed none of the fruit and coconut richness I'm accustomed to, nor did the palate really have the heft I'd expect from a 2003/Yquem crossover. I'll probably have to open one of my own bottles to double check my assessment of this wine...
