Drink 0-0, Neal Martin, Mar 2019

The 2009 de Malle seems to be a fine wine although both bottles show evidence of TCA, which is worrying. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners' 2009 Bordeaux tasting.

Pale gold, the 2009 de Malle has a nose of baked lemons, chalk dust, hay, preserved kumquats, ginger and chamomile tea. Elegant, fresh and youthful, the palate still has tons of zip in its step, and it finishes wonderfully citrusy.

Tasted blind. Even the second bottle is a bit unclean – TCA? Pinched. (JR)
