Community Tasting Note

Monday, October 8, 2012 - Again a poor performance of this famous wine, this time from different provenance than the bottle from January this year. Am I misinterpreting this wine? Is is still so closed that we cannot taste through it? But tasting it blind, we came across unripe, grassy notes, drying tannins, very little complexity in nose or taste and a very short finish. These are not the characteristics of a young top wine. Drank along Cos and Leoville las Cases 1986, both with star performance. I'll try again in 10 years.
