Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 8, 2017 - Wine Dinner at Carbone (Carbone): Deep garnet core with some browning at the edge, clearly appeared older than its flight companion a 1982 Leoville las Cases, which was far deeper color and virtually no sign of age. The nose was filled with soft dark red fruits, earth, tar and smoke. Palate was so smooth and silky, clearly benefiting from both the 82 vintage richness wrapped in pomorol silk. Dark red fruits were a little muted, this was clearly not as well stored as the LLC which was fresher and younger. Good balance and complexity. On its own a very nice glass but suffered vs the night's offerings
