1990 Château Phélan Ségur

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

93 Points

Tuesday, November 14, 2023 - When I pulled the cork out, I lost my hope, that this wine will be any good. Cork was completely soak and almost black
45 minutes in the decanter
🕙🕐⏰
First sip and I knew that it would be good, third glass and I know that this juice is delicious! Flavors of milk chocolate, cocoa, mocha mixed with black cherry, blackberry, tobacco and spice( that lasts from the beginning to the long end).
Velvety texture, vivid acidity, soft tannins. Perfect balance, perfect harmony, addictive taste. Unfortunately the smell is very weak ( weird)
Some tobacco, some leather, something sweet.
Well...I blame it for the cork 🙂
