Tasted 10 September 2019
Libournais · Saint-Émilion Grand Cru
Thank the holy Gods of the grape, this 2016 is WAY better than the 2014 I had yesterday. What a difference a vintage makes. Compared to the diluted 2014, this 2016 shows fulfilling red and black cherry, plum, red…
Soft plum, red cherry, leather, and some cedar. Thin and lithe on the attack, with a watery mid-palate. Finishes fairly flaccid, with the muddled plum note repeating on the back end.
