Community Tasting Note

StefanAkiko Likes this wine:

Friday, November 17, 2023 - Troplong Mondot: 1959-2012 (Stockholm, Sweden): Semi-blind (knew which 17 vintages that were being served).

Dark colour.

light oxidative aromatics, but youthful. Felt like the youngest wine in this flight.
A well-balanced wine but a bit over on the thinner side of things. Tannins are chewy in a good way. Cassis, iron (blood), ginger, black tea, fresh vegetables, lukewarm cola-flavored gummies.

2 hours later: More rich, PHAT and the tannic structure is even stronger than before. (Makes you wonder what a monster this must have been in the early 60'ies!!!) Nothing to suggest this is a very old Bdx.

My guess: 1983
What a youthful beauty! Wow!
