We've moved on to a beauty of a wine - the 1970 Warre. Decanted 6 hours. Still has some great ruby color.
On to the tasting...
Some liquorice, violets and black cherry on the nose. Exhibits that traditional Warre elegance. The approach of this wine is like velvet, evolving into a pronounced acidity that is beautifully balanced with evolving tannins on the slightly clipped finish. 93 points
Alex B says insists that I add:
1) He picked up WHITE cherry instead of black
2) He gives it a "7 of 7" score (whatever the hell that means)
3) He gives it a 91/100 on a 100 pt scale
4) He has no idea where I got the additional 2 points I awarded it.
Brits...sheesh....
NOT Andy V. but rather your semi-illustrious admin - Stewart.
