Another classic LGDD decrypted. It occurs regularly in many wine shops and AVF. I actually bought this bottle at Crossroads Market, fall in full operation, next door to me. It must be said that with the last two wines tasted, it's a bit of a return to my first love: Bordeaux, and the left bank, always.
Saturday, I drink the wine of Drops of God. I am invited to my sister for lunch. Not sure my head to take notes for you transcribe the tasting.
Also, in addition to what I write above. I feel like, until today, missed the wines of Burgundy and the Loire. It is therefore quite possible that they play an increasingly important LGDD.

Opening and services large wine glass to aerate it. The color is very dark and the edge of the blood-red disk. J'aère widely. I can perceive the evolution of flavors that emerge as the oxygenation occurs. In the end these are aromas of red fruit dominate. Woody present but well integrated, non-dominant, it is classic and is still evolving.
palate, The attack is straightforward. The wine develops aromas in a pretty balanced. Alcohol is present but not dominant enough. And then, boom! wine disappears. The finish is not short, it is nonexistent ... pity.
later, I resume my impressions on the nose that has evolved. The aromas described previously expressed now with a remarkable intensity. In the mouth, like a good balance but not final. Is this a wine closed? Or it is too thin for my taste?
LGDD's note for this wine: 12/20.
And of course, your comments are always welcome.
Cheers, NL
