Community Tasting Note

Cremuel Likes this wine:

Friday, March 10, 2023 - Bob's cellar. Dark inky red and black, no bricking at all. Uncorked and replaced this morning, decanted an hour ago. Nose is subdued, there's sweet brambles and menthol, black cherry and damson, very little acidity. Opening tasting is similarly flat, dry, a little salty, rigidity in it, flat fruit. Really closed at the moment, although has a fineness. A little more time in the glass and the aromas deepen, still black cherry, now liquorice and tar, rather good. Taste is salty, drier than the nose, still fine, structured wood tones, reticent fruit. Opens up over time with more fruit coming through, but the overall effect is it is tight and restrained, pure too. Enjoyed this a lot as the 'clinical' effect is very good - classy and pure refined Margaux. I wonder how much it can improve from here?
