Community Tasting Note

WojteG Likes this wine:

Tuesday, June 20, 2023 - What can I say... not only the oldest wine I have ever had, but also the best.
Nose - dried plum, barbecue, freshly ground coffee beans, balsamic vinegar. All aromas very well defined.
Taste? Paradise on earth, more precisely in the mouth. It's hard to put it into words, but harmony and balance, balance and harmony, just incredible pleasure and surprise. Cherry, blackcurrant, tangerine (surprise), milk chocolate (super), coffee and tobacco. All ingredients appear at once and all last until a very long end.
I didn't bother with measuring time, but for at least a minute, the whole flavor remained on the tongue with the addition of mild but visible tannins.
13.5%. 96,000 bottles were produced. The wine remained for 11 years in three different types of barrels and a year in the bottle. It appeared on the market in 1976.
Decanter - 98
RP - 96
CT 93.9 ??! Why?!
