Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Sunday, November 6, 2011 - Consumed at a 10-years-out horizontal of 4 First Growths (Mouton, Latour, Margaux and Haut Brion) dinner event. All wines had been decanted about 5 hours prior for a period of about 2 hours and then returned to bottle. For me, this was the best of the 4. From the outset, this wine had a rich smoothness that was unexpected from the wine at only age 10. Still tons of material, but the balance and mouthfeel were ahead of its siblings at this dinner. Nose was excellent, typical and strong as well. This wine should continue to develop for years to come. Tremendous!
